Oregon wins the meme
I am assured this is real:
The site has newspaper front pages from around the world, but none top this.
Also, the Obama campaign has uploaded a Flickr set of behind-the-scenes election night photos. It's widely suspected this is why Flickr fell over for a while yesterday - certainly the view count isn't increasing, suggesting it's all very, very cached.
My canal photos in a local London newspaper
Last weekend saw the annual Canalway Cavalcade festival at Little Venice in Paddington. The Ham & High local newspaper wrote up the event, and used four photos I took last year:
Yay! I didn't get credit, but I'd given the organising committee permission to hand over the images regardless. I'm happy enough they thought my pics were good enough to print. It's a shame they're such low quality - it's like they enlarged the 'small' flickr versions or something - but is cool nevertheless. The guy standing on the front of the top-right boat is my Dad, so it was an entertaining discovery all round. Many thanks to Liz from the organising committee for asking my permission and being so friendly about the whole process.
