If you’ve been checking out my Sunday Image blog posts regularly you’ll notice that the Flickr Commons is one of my favourite sources. The Flickr Commons is a great resource if you’re into vintage photography. It invites institutions with large photo archives (museums, libraries, national archives, etc.) to upload parts of their collections to Flickr so the public can access them.

From time to time the museum crowdsources for annotations on photographs. So when a museum curator is unsure where a photo was taken they ask the crowd. Sometimes the crowd comes back with great and very accurate responses.

I’m also going to give a very jaunty tip of the hat to the blog Indicommons which explores the growing Flickr Commons by pointing out interesting content and new additions. I will also note that one of the editors of the Indicommons blog is Toronto editor and fellow book nerd Stephanie Fysh.

A friend of mine is returning from almost a year in Paris. I don’t think her Paris looked anything like this. This is the Brooklyn Museum’s lovely set of photos from the 1900 Paris Exhibition.

a number of times but yesterday I really looked closely at the street fashion photography of the New York Times’ Bill Cunningham. He does a weekly column in the Sunday Times of various cool things people in New York are wearing. But even more fun are his narrated photo slideshows.

This week’s photo essay on the pencil skirt left me a bit short of breath (bear with me ladies, I’m not a lecherous pig or anything). But for sheer comedic value listen/watch his essay on the trend of men who wear low-riding pants. Cunningham’s exasperation at arguably one of the oddest fashion trends is worth a listen.
