ahahah, https://www.flickr.com/photos/marikoen/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/marikoen/ this one? he seems to be sneaky, but also quite miserable. I have no idea why people do this for imaginary internet points. His photos are also quite boring.
Overall, flickr compared to instagram is so pleasant these days, no spam, just photos and some really good curated group.
- reaperducer 4y agoI have no idea why people do this for imaginary internet points. An increasing number of people have trouble telling the difference between the real world and the internet. It has all the hallmarks of mental illness, including compulsion and addiction. As far as I'm concerned "internet famous" === not famous.
- yakubin 4y agoDo photographers posting such photos ask people in the photos for permission? I sometimes take such photos, but I don't post them, unless there are many people in them (as opposed to just 1-3), but that means I don't post a lot of really good photos, which is a shame. I'm a bit on the verge about it.
- smnrchrds 4y agoDepending on where you are, asking for permission may be either just good practice (to not be an asshole) or a legal requirement. I believe it's the latter in Belgium, where this photographer is located. https://economie.fgov.be/en/themes/intellectual-property/intellectual-property-rights/copyright-and-related-rights/copyright/right-image https://economie.fgov.be/en/themes/intellectual-property/int...
- yakubin 4y agoIt’s a legal requirement, where I am. I just know of several cases where that wasn’t done. And in the case of that Flickr account I do wonder whether the author stopped the cyclists to ask, where I’d guess he would often maybe not be able to.
