What'd you drinkin' mate?

Hopefully something imported...and not from the US.  ;)
The US does have some very good microbreweries.

You just have to get to them...somehow.
What you won't find in my car is a coffee, cigarette and a cell phone. What you will find is a driver; imagine that, a driver in a vehicle. What an effing concept!

A car has to do more than just perform; it has to stir your soul!

A true driver's car does not have cup holders.

Carling, felt a bit nostalgic.

Seriously, how funny is this. I wash the car on Monday, post it on the net overnight. Today it appears on a Spanish car blog.

 ;D

And Toronto Life featured another one of my (non-car) shots:

20,000 views on this image alone.

 ;D ;D

Perhaps a dumb question...I'm curious how your are able to track one of your photos to a Spanish car blog?? How did you accomplish that? Does you photo sharing web account show you who has linked to your images??

Flickr tells you how people find your images, as they specify a click through link for someone to be able to use the image.  It's very interesting to see what pops up where.

Thanks for the explanation. That's a cool feature. Must be fun to see where some of your shots end up.

Is that only available with the Pro version of Flickr?

Thanks for the tip!  I'll have a look to see if my pics are being used.
