Across the Commons your way!
Posted by zyrcster in Across The Commons, NewsFlickr released a new feature this week called galleries.
Galleries - a new Flickr feature
The Flickr Blog explains,
For whatever you find interesting, fascinating, or mind-blowing on Flickr, galleries are a way to curate up to 18 public photos or videos of your fellow members into one place around a theme, an idea or just because.
Now any Flickr user can create an Across the Commons series, annotated, containing photos from the Commons centered around any theme that moves them! Here’s a sprinkling of Commons Galleries we’ve noticed:
| Before Kodachrome, a gallery curated by Lú_, investigates the early colour photographic processes in the Commons collections on Flickr. |  Before Kodachrome |
| Yours truly is fascinated by Yosemite National Park and tragedies. In this gallery, I put together Carleton E. Watkin’s historic photos with modern day images of the same scenes. Watkins lost most of his photographic legacy in the Great Fire of ‘06 in San Francisco… we’re fortunate that his work is available in The Commons. |  Yosemite Then and Now |
| The Branch Office is a fun and eclectic mix of photos from both The Commons and from other Flickr users, curated by pennylrichardsca. Enjoy the beauty of light filtering down through the leaves. |  The Branch Office |
| striatic re-creates a fun Across the Commons first posted to this blog. Just Plane Trouble is a fun and insightful look at aeronautic fails. |  Just Plane Trouble |
| Delivering the Mail — the Commons way is a great curation from Brenda Anderson, in fact, the first Across the Commons that our group ran. |  Delivering the Mail – the Commons way |
What galleries will you create? Drop by our thread in the Flickr Commons group and show us your stuff! We’d love to feature your galleries on this blog.
