Wide Right Turn Got FlickrBlogged.

Some people think that the central glory of Flickr is the Superstar Image. I like that stuff, too. But I love the obsessive nature of image-making that Flickr nurtures.

Last night Heather of the FlickrBlog posted about a goofball set of truck images that is 127 photos strong. She also linked to a set that showed the backs of trucks. I hustled to FlickrMail and pointed her to my Wide Right Turn stuff and she added a link to them. Not a gorgeous image in the lot. Just a lot of weird curation. I like it.
