A heartwarming Flickr story of staggering luck

Brooklyn in Color - subway lightboxes     big thumb

"Hey!  I’ve got a solo photo exhibit in Brooklyn’s Atlantic Avenue subway station! Eight giant (4×6 foot) lightboxes! They’ll be up for a year!  And it’s all thanks to Flickr.  The MTA’s curator found my photos by searching Flickr and we used Flickr to choose and narrow down the photos for the exhibit." Ranjit
