Being the history buff that I am, I was excited to learn about Flickr’s partnership with huge archives of public domain images like the Library of Congress. There are thousands of images there now, ranging from black and white baseball photos to rich colorful images of sharecroppers. The photo above, “Faro and Doris Caudill, homesteaders, Pie Town, New Mexico“, makes me think of my day dream of Audrey and my future life. Like some kind of nostalgia for the future.

One of the great things about the Flickr Commons images is that most of them are copyright-free. I’ve been looking for images for posters and other artwork, and it feels great that I could literally take my pick.

On a side note, I think I might want to emulate the guy’s style this year. So cool!
