Photo of the Day | January 2025

[goldmac2006]

I am not the arbiter of what is and is not allowed. We have a thread on discussing how the POTD thread should work.

As it was originally set up, however, the goal for limiting people to one photo a day was so that people would return day after day to see new things. It was not a hard and fast rule like some make it out to be. The original thread was friendly and welcome to all. But it is true that posting image after image in separate posts was discouraged, which is why the single photo a day rule came to be for the current incarnation of this thread.

Personally, I'm fine with replies to direct questions with extra photos thrown in as a discussion point. I feel like over the past couple of years we have been forced to minimize side conversations that are relevant to images posted within this thread, and therefore we have lost a lot of the friendship and camaraderie that we used to have several years ago. I'd love for 2025 to be the year of less policing and more grace, but that's just my own opinion.

Also if this post should be moved to the POTD discussion thread, that's fine, I just hope most participants see it here first. 🙂

To alleviate this situation I had already created an  park photos thread with all of Apple Park pictures over the years. Feel free to share them if you have any, it’s up now.

I also like to title my images. Your titles are more comprehensible than mine however as title and image usually connect only in my head.
I like your more direct approach.
