World Photography Day - a photo on Flickriver

Over the years I have abused a lot of equipment, wasted a lot of film, and more recently, burned a lot of pixels. All was in pursuit of a photograph like this one.

World Photography Day is all about celebrating photography and remembering how special a photograph can be. Today, we take our photographs for granted. But next time you're flicking though photos from your last holiday, remember that there was once a time when photography didn't exist. A time when those precious moments couldn't be captured, uploaded and shared. On August 19th, celebrate photography and share your world with the world!
