I think it's great news that flickr is being acquired by SmugMug because at least SmugMug cares about photos. Of course, I'm a bit concerned. Not about the future of my photos on flickr, I have complete faith that they'll always be there during any site transition. Hopefully they don't change all the URLs, though. I don't care if a day comes when all my new photos have a SmugMug URL, but it'd be a huge bummer if every photo I ever embedded here over the last dozen or so years turned into a big red X.

But I'm not concerned enough about that to do anything about it until it happens. And there's no way I'll go back and update over 13,000 journal entries. So I'll just cross my fingers and hope for the best.

And in the meantime, there's always more pretty pictures and time lapses to share. I brought both of those cameras today even though the sky looked pretty clear, and was glad I did.
