Sharing your silhouettes
We asked you to share your silhouette photography in our gallery last week, and many of you had plenty of shots to share. In appreciation of those who participated, here’s a photography selection from them.
For the love of bread
Here on Flickr, we have a whole lot of foodies — heck, who doesn’t like food. We’d like to celebrate all the wonderful photos of what we all eat on our blog. And for today, let’s explore those delectable breads and the bakers that make them.

Photos that make you feel like a teenager again
Vanessa Hollander and Wilson Philippe are Wiissa, a young film-and-photography duo and real-life couple who turned their hobby into a career. Their colorful and dreamy ‘60s- and ‘70s-inspired photography creates a nostalgic feel, and Vanessa says, “A lot of people tell us when they look at our photos that kind of makes them feel like they’re a teenager again.”

Photographer Spotlight: Conor MacNeill
Conor MacNeill quit his day job to become a full-time photographer only three years after picking up a cheap DSLR for the first time.

We’re happy to share his story with you in this Photographer Spotlight.
