Shoot at sight!

charukesi July 1st, 2005

This morning, I woke up (yet again) to the wonders of the wide open ether space that brings complete strangers in contact - otherwise known as the internet.

Bob Reid on flickr (who goes under the mysterious name ‘paladinsf’) has gifted me with a flickrpro account. I have for a while now been looking enviously at every account of flickr which has the magical word *pro* against it - and telling myself that I was too un-pro a photographer to aim for this… And now a totally wonderful kind stranger has dropped this on my lap.

Flcikr bliss ! Now watch me develop shutter-forefinger (er, tennis elbow?)

Yes, I am gushing… so?

Deep breath. One more deep breath.

What the heck, yippee!

I have just stopped blubbering with mad joy… and now I am all ready to give back to the world - strike while the mood lasts and ask - you may or may not (more likely not) receive but what the heck!

    Congrats! How many people can u pass it on to? Is it something like a Gmail invite that you pass it on to others?

    Well, I remember very vividly you appreciating a few of my pictures. Maybe, I deserve a pro account too. :)

    Hi Charu,

    That’s awesome. I am thinking about purchasing a pro account pretty soon. At about $2 per month, it’s well worth it.
