I found this great picture of the water fountain near the Sydney Olympic Park on Flickr at http://www.flickr.com/photos/serdar/78791452/
The image brings back some wonderful memories of the time I visited the Sydney Olympics. I was lucky enough to be a spectator at a volleyball match - it was fascinating to see the athletes in action and the atmoshpere in the stadium was just electric. It was also really amazing to think that I was watching the world's best right infront of me!
As for my learning this week, I have thoroughly enjoyed Week 3's activities and I am now considering how our activities for our library promotions in September might be able to tie in with Flickr (like the photographic competition for teens at Lansing Pubilc Library). There are obviously so many opportunities for libraries to promote themselves and their collections with these types of photosharing tools - opportunities which I really had not considered much before so this training is really 'broadening my horizons'.
I've also enjoyed learning how I can apply this knowledge in my personal life - I love my digital camera and I would love to share some of my photos with family and friends on Flickr. I too, have reservations about making them accessible to the public though.
Now... here's hoping my image from Flickr uploads to my blog...

Great image - thanks for finding it.
It is really fun when you can see some great work and home applications for what you are learning. Don't forget you can load some pictures of your library, tagged with nswpln2008 to link them to other photographs taken for this course.
