Winner - Theme Competition No 52. The weekly theme competition usually has a title/theme but as this was the first anniversary of the competition - the submission guidelines were "ANYTHING GOES". ........................................................................................................................................... The sea was really rough today and I met this chap heading along the shore with his dog. Here and beyond this point the waves were coming up over the sea defenses and across the promenade. You can see the water coming over the path ahead. I had taken a couple of photos of the sea coming over the top, but nothing special before he arrived. We exchanged pleasantries during which time I was predominantly concentrating on trying to keep the salt water off my camera. I pointed out that he could expect to get drenched heading along the next stretch, but I could see he was already wet - and his dog certainly looked up to the challenge. He did pause briefly and seemed to give the matter a little thought before heading off into the spray.

Flickriver is a web-based image viewer that provides a new way to explore and view Flickr photos.
It's a personal project of Alex Sirota (aka iosart).
Flickriver enhances your photo browsing experience in several ways:
Answer: Flickriver is simply an alternative Flickr viewer, and as such it displays all public Flickr photos using the official Flickr API - similarly to hundreds of other alternative Flickr viewers and tools. Flickriver doesn't host any photos and doesn't reference any photos specifically - it is merely a viewer that reflects whatever Flickr provides it when you ask it to.
Flickr have specific guidelines for viewers such as Flickriver and other applications that use their API - for example, once a viewer displays a public Flickr photo, the photo must link back to its original Flickr page - so there can be no misunderstanding about the image origin, author or copyright. As you can see, Flickriver is absolutely compliant with this guideline. You can read the official Flickr FAQ about this here and here.
Flickr allows you to opt out from third party services having access to your photos using Flickr API. You can opt out on this page by selecting both:
Note: Flickriver uses the Flickr API but is not endorsed or certified by Flickr.
