Over the weekend, Diego Balinhas favourited some of my photos on Flickr. It's always nice when someone marks one of your pictures as a favourite. I had no idea who Diego Balinhas was, so I checked his profile... and amongst other things discovered that he has favourited quite a lot of photographs. As of now, 9 August 2010 at about 1936 British Summer Time, he has marked 419,005 photographs as favourites. Approaching half a million. This strikes me as perhaps a little indiscriminate. So I googled him. Most of the results were, perhaps unsurprisingly, links to Flickr, but I did find his blog. Which is in Spanish. Which is one of the many languages I cannot speak. Google offered to translate it into English, which was very nice of Google, but it didn't make much more sense to me in English than it did in Spanish. So Diego and his apparently insatiable appetite for photographs remain a mystery...
The Tattoo Queue sign amused me. I had visions of hundreds of people waiting in line for their butterflies and cherries and Celtic motifs. I'm easily amused.
I like these two posters together...

I like these images and the notion of people queuing at a pole for tattoos... Yes, Diego has favourited a couple of my photos. If I added together all the comments I've made then I wonder how many photos that would be?
ReplyDeleteAnyway, if you're looking in Diego, Thanks for the feedback.
Diego Balinhashas has also favorited two of mine uploads today. Thank you Diego and also thank you Sleepyduck for this information, I was wondering who he was and I wish that I could get the words to flow on paper as wonderful as you. I'm so much better posting images than writing. :-) Hoping you and impoftheyard had a great weekend.
