My best photo from 2007
I realised that it would be tricky (or impossible really), to pick one photo from you guys as the best photo from 2007, so I decided to show you my best photos, not according to me, but according to the people at flickr. There's a secret mathematical algorithm that decides the popularity of the photos, taking into account views, faves, comments and what have you.
Here is the top five, with the latest stats from December 31th.
The Lunar Eclipse. 17 000 views. 60 faves.
Autumn Wallpaper. 4000 views. 85 faves.
Winter in Sweden. 7300 views. 194 faves.
Guess what season it is. 960 views. 26 faves.
The view from my finger. 4900 views. 17 faves.
And from those five, my personal favorite is the winter photo from Ålsta. I took this in mid November after the first snow fall. It shows a house at Ålsta in Tungelsta where a Mr. Wall lives.

Great winter shots. Thanks for visiting. Have a great New Year.
ReplyDeleteAn excellent choice, but a tough decision. This looks like a winter fairytale. Happy new year!
ReplyDeleteWell Steffe, the algorithm doesn't lie, in this case at least. This is one of my faves of yours. I thought of doing the same thing, but mine was either the photo of the "post card view" or a close up of a cyclist in boots. . .neither of which were my faves, but which got hundreds of views. Always puzzling to me, interestingness.
ReplyDeleteHappy 2008 to you!

ReplyDeleteI look forward to visiting your blog more often this 2008. And you're welcome to mine, too! For some reason, my link was not included in the participating blogs for the 1st of January 2008 theme day. Sorry I wasn't able to visit your blog sooner. I was in transit the whole of yesterday. I am now back in Norwich after the most fantabulous time at home in Manila.
Happy New Year to you and everyone you hold dear!
