I like to check pics both here and at Flickr, though for me, summer is a time to spend with family, and outside.

I will always love Joedios first and foremost as I never would have "met" fine folks like Outrider, Toneguns, Price Adam and countless others who encouraged me and gave hints on how to improve lighting and focus in my photography.

I also like the review section which helps with making decisions when budgets run tight.

One feature I like in Flickr is watching the slideshow while eating or sipping a lemonade. That is the ultimate in laziness...no need to type or click, the pictures just keep rolling...

I just figured people posted to both to get more comments and feedback.

Thanks for a great place to view and post pictures, and a safe place to play. (Both my 9 and 6 year old check out pictures looking over my shoulder, so I appreciate how most folks keep the language clean.)
