This photo is now on Flickr’s “Explore.” Every day, the Explore page is updated with the most popular photos on Flickr as chosen by an algorithm. Probably based on how many people view the photo, comments on the photo, faves, etc. Once and awhile one of my photos appears on this page.

I like to spend a little time each day training the algorithms (insert wink emoji here)!

      Yes, it seems quite random, but a lot of people see it.
