# A Week With A View

**A Week With A View**

There's an impressive amount of photography on Flickr. There are some amazing photos on there from amateur and professional photographers. Here's a blogging exercise I'd like you to try this coming week. Find a beautiful photo [licensed for Creative Commons use](https://www.flickr.com/creativecommons/by-2.0/), a moving photo, a stunning, stirring photo each day this week. Tag it #wwav - Week With A View - and post it on your blog with a short description of why the photo is beautiful, then share the heck out of it so that we can all see some of the best, most beautiful photography available online.

**General Guidelines & Suggestions**

- Yes, absolutely they can be your own photos as long as they're Creative Commons licensed.

- Post a photo a day from June 29, 2009 - July 4, 2009.

- ***Link and give full credit to the photographer!***

- Ideally, they should be Creative Commons commercially licensed so that you can post them on a corporate blog, too.

- Search for keywords of things that YOU personally find beautiful. Everyone always seems to search for sunsets. What do YOU like?

- **TAG YOUR BLOG POSTS! TAG YOUR TWEETS! The whole point is to see what OTHER people find beautiful.**
