Thank you. Although I think there's a great deal of random chance to it; how many of one's followers happen to fave and/or comment on the image within a short time.

Edit: Hmm, #49 now.

Another one yesterday - good time are here again! ( ) - another slightly odd choice, but not as odd as some of the stuff, like having 10 or 12 snaps of the the same yellow bus by the same person, and a similar one last week - oh well, the ineffable mysteries of explore

The day I was shooting at Glenbrook Gorge I was with a friend and fellow photographer where I spotted a scene that would work well (the leaves swirling in circles), he nodded like "oh yeah... good point" and we proceeded to set up for our shots. A few hours later upon our return he gloats to me that his shot got into Explore! I gave him my devil stare back and he laughed knowing fine well it was my genius eye that spotted the scene. A few more hours passed and my shot was also added to Explore, we're unsure of if both our entries made it in the same day or the following (anyway to find that out?). Anyway quick recap for those that don't want to scroll up or hit previous page, here's my entry and his;

Mine


His


(dammit... he got way more views and likes... grrrr)

Really? I woulda thought u'd have a ton in there. Great shot this, always nice to see a flower from a different perspective. Congrats!

Thank you kindly.

I only have like 4-5 pictures on Explore, I don't know how their algorithm works but somehow my least favorite pics end up on Explore, while pictures that I'm really happy with never make it

Anyway here's the second one (from Galway, Ireland).
