I post this one because of a photo posted by Dok, a couple of days ago. Dok1's pic reminded me of this one from my grandfather's old 1943 photography book. Fenno Jacobs Mother and child are Aymara Indians from the mountain region north and east of La Paz on the road to Sorata. The picture was taken during one of the many stops of a five-month stay in Bolivia on assignment for Fortune. It was taken as an altitude of about 15 thousand feet. Fenno Jacobs made a fourteen month tour of the South American Countries.. The picture was taken with a Zeiss Ikoflex. Exposure was in 1/100 of a second at f16, with a yellow green filter, on Eastman Super XX film. Negative developed in Eastman DK-20. Jacobs says: "In La Paz where all the laboratory work was done, the great problem was to get the temperatures of the solutions up to the proper point and keep them there. In the daytime the sun is very, very hot but always in the harsh black shadows (and in the darkroom) it is cold." U.S. CAMERA 1943 Copy right T. J. Maloney Photo judge : LT. Comdr.

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.
