We photographers do this all the time.. I have been savouring moments for 69 years, that is why it takes me so long to do anything....
Even savouring old buildings.....

Photography happens on earth, and earth needs its champions. If you’ve been around Flickr at all, you know how seriously we take our conservation and sustainability: We’re Certified Evergreen. We’re a Climate Pledge signatory and Climate Neutral Certified. We’re a member of The Conservation Alliance. And today, we’re pleased to join 1% for the Planet, a coalition of businesses who donate 1% of all sales, not just profits, to support verified environmental causes and organizations.

Think about it like this: Photography has existed for a little less than two centuries, but its impact on humanity is immeasurable. As the world’s largest photo community, our mission is to build a better world through the power of photography. Sustainability and conservation are baked right into our very core, and it’s our duty and privilege to protect the open and wild spaces that inspire photographers.

To further our efforts, we also joined the Mobilizing for Monuments Coalition and produced the Mobilizing for Monuments film, advocating for environmental conservation and the preservation of open spaces. And just recently, we conducted a report on how precious these places are to photographers.

OPEN SPACES REPORT
A report on open spaces conducted by Awesome, Inc. on behalf of Flickr surveyed 1,767 photographers, including hobbyists, professionals, and small business owners. Key findings include:

95% of photographers surveyed agreed that limiting access to open spaces would adversely affect their business or craft.
9 out of 10 photographers derived at least a portion of their income from open spaces.
We’re doing what we can to protect these locations and our planet for endless future generations of photographers.

Getting ready with some of the gear we now find we have to take on a picnic with a new baby and a dog!
And the old Hillman Hunter...#YAX874. at Pine Island ACT

There are two albums, a brown A3 size labelled - "Photographs " covering from Kate's birth Oct 1969, with a few shots of Mary on a Camel in Egypt in the cover, to Kate's first birthday party in the backyard with all the kids from our street! With shots of Mum C awkwardly holding Kate, to Pine Island picnic with Denis, Alison, Rick & Pat.

25 years later Mary thought the Esky was getting too old and had seen better days and wanted to abandon it in some remote place, but I hung onto it for another 20 years and we used it to keep spare beer in it at Cave Beach with ACE..
