We try to keep it all smiles as often as we can.

Two wife’s of King Charles IV of Bohemia. I asked for this shot to tweak and share on Flickr. I’m assuming that both platforms apply the term as liberally as possible and it’s meant to mean any time your photo was seen anywhere on either site on a computer, tablet, or phone screen. Tonight while driving between Wrightsville and Columbia, Pa my wife took a bunch of nice photos. I should also add that I don’t know exactly what constitutes a “view” on either platform. I also put the photo into the pool in American photographer and added it to other groups as invited on Flickr (I would normally do this anyways).

Other than posting a link in my Flickr group American Photographer, I didn’t post anywhere else on either link. I didn’t do anything special to promote either of the two photos myself other than engage in the comments on each as I normally would. I’m not sure exactly what any of this means other than while my photo got 2x the number of views on Twitter, it also got 2x the amount of engagement on Flickr (as measured by likes and comments). The Twitter photo also got six retweets (Flickr doesn’t have retweets). There are other metrics to look at as well. Oddly, Twitter generated almost exactly 2x as many views as the exact same photo on Flickr.
