A Few Good ClickaSnap Profiles

A Few Good ClickaSnap Profiles During my journey with ClickaSnap I have come across many good and great profiles by some really dedicated photographers. Their photographs have come across the Internet through a combination of methods. Early on I utilized the Explore page to see what was out there. I would see a photo which peaked my curiosity and I'd click on it. Many times the results were mediocre and I would lose interest fast. Some of them had so few examples that I was gone in a second. This is not to say I wouldn't and didn't come back later to see what might have been added. Some of the collections were highly interesting and varied such that I have been encouraged to return many times to see the new additions. If the collection had a sufficient number of pictures I could Follow the Profile and they could see that they were being followed. They had to have their Notifications turned on for that. If i followed them anything they posted would display in

Lincoln Highway vs US 30

Lincoln Highway vs US 30 Photos at ClickaSnap.com When the highway numbering schema was created many different named roads were consolidated under the new monickers.  Click for Larger Image The Lincoln Highway began as a major east-west highway connecting Atlantic City, NJ with San Francisco. It traversed 12 states.   When the numbered road designations was introduced, the western end-point became Astoria, OR and only the first 9 states remained the same counting from the east. California, Nevada and Utah were replaced by Oregon and Idaho as part of the route.    The US 30 route is 3073 miles. Throughout the decades many sections of the original highways have been widened or bypassed to increase traffic volumes and facilitate faster heavier vehicles. The needs of the trucking industry drove the development of flatter profiles and larger radius curves. Tunnels and bridges needed greater carrying capacities.   Click for Larger Image My idea of travel is to run the old alignment

Church Architecture

Church Architecture A photo album of Lens4aneEye at ClickaSnap.com by Robert Carlson   I am not a particularly religious person. That doesn’t mean I can’t appreciate the structures old and new, in use of abandoned, in good shape or dilapidated. Every building once held services and help mold the faith and emotions of its congregation.    Church in Braddock, PA Men have built towering cathedrals to their gods and built humble houses of worship with    whatever resources and labor they could muster.  Men come and men go. The Earth abides. This paraphrase is derived of Ecclesiastes. Church buildings come and go, too,and the faith abides.   My collection of church imagery combines the love of a place with the memories of the people who prayed, sang, laughed and cried. They wed, baptized and said their final goodbyes inside these halls and chapels.    Mountain Top in Costa Rica A building is after all only a structure of wood, glass. Steel and masonry until the people endow it w

Getting Visibility on the Web

Image
Getting Visibility on the web is important especially when you have something to say or show. In my case it is my photography.  My collections are hosted on ClickaSnap.com at the user name Lens4anEye . I also have a large selection as NFTs on Opensea.com at Itsalltuna . Every opportunity is important because one never knows which platform an interested buyer might go to and find That One photo they really need to have. This QR code links to my Instagram account where a small selection of my works is presented. Followers will be appreciated.  I also have a Twitter account at the name Itsalltuna . Follow me there too. As I said earlier every avenue of visibility makes for a larger audience. Finding the people who appreciate my photographic style is my ultimate goal with all the work put in to it. One on these days I need to give Youtube a try. I don't know about TikTok since it might get banned from the US. There are so many other platforms to use, but so little time to get around to

Left Brain - Right Brain

Image
Left Brain - Right Brain [ Lens4anEye ] My left brain writes a story, punctuates the sentences and proofs the content. My right brain sees the the pictures and focuses the camera to capture the images which are also the story. In reality it is usually the image side leading the context side through to the final presentation.  It takes both sides working simultaneously to get the job done. One cannot exist without the other. They say a picture is worth a thousand words but getting the picture takes far longer. I’m my world a picture is worth a thousand miles. <=== Click here for larger image ===   The usual approach is to select a destination, choose the mode of transportation and hit the road or airways, et al. While my right brain is busy getting the photography just right, my left side is recording what I think about it. Then when the images are done the words can follow. Every image tells a story and every story conjures an image.   Both aspects are essential to ge

Scenes Along the Highway and Then the Highway Itself

There are the Scenes Along the Highway and then the Highway Itself by Robert Carlson    [ Lens4anEye ]   Some highways are suited to 70 and 80 mph speeds without much fuss or bother. They are straight and flat with few other travelers nearby. One can floor the gas pedal and nearly fly along watching only the road ahead and for anything which might enter your path of travel. Click here for the full Scenes Along the Highway Album. click for larger image   The miles are both long and short. Long as in many of them and short as in each one passes in 45    to 50 seconds. The landscape is beautiful even if monotonous. Those mountains in the distance don’t change much from one hour to the next. Your peripheral views remain pretty much the same too.  click for larger image   Then suddenly there IS something. A sun bleached abode with missing planks. A horse standing in a wire fenced dirt patch. A rusty pickup truck surrounded by bald tires strewn about. You hit the brakes skidding to a stop
