Flickr can provide lots of inspiration for photographers at all levels. With thousands of images being uploaded daily, staff curators have much to work with. One of the many ways in which you can see the work of others is via World Map that's located under Explore in the top nav bar. Learn more about this feature in this video.
- [Voiceover] The World Map under Explore,…here we go, right there,…is based on the geotags associated with an image.…So you see all the different areas here…where images have been added to Flickr with geotags.…And if you want to see what's going on…in a particular area of the world,…let's try this one right here,…then you just click on it and you get an image right there…from that part of the world.…So if you feel like traveling,…but you don't have the time or the money for the airfare,…just come over to the World Map,…see what's going on with all the different areas here.…
You can zoom in and zoom out,…and more pink dots will appear.…And you can just explore the world…from the comfort of your sofa at home.…It's really kind of cool.…I love it.…
