It is raining, so I chose a picture of a tree in the rain using the Commons by group on Flickr. This is a great site to use in education for sharing photos to teach photography or other visual arts. Students can share photos and interact wihin the community. I like that one can get feedback on the photos. Also, it seems fairly easy to navigate. Of course, some viewers may be analyzing the photograph as a photographer, while others might see it from another viewpoint. These pictures can be used to make Powerpoint presentations more dynamic also, thus appealing to teachers and students. I liked the art projects seen in the resources for librarians. I think this can be used to promote literacy as well as the arts. I can definitely see the educational value of Flickr.
