Please post only one image from your Flickr photostream with the most views. Doesn't matter what it is. Just the one image with the most view count.

Thanks!

So, what causes a particular image to be viewed excessively compared to your other images? If it is being used on another site, is there any way to find out what site?

Some photos you can understand being popular (for example bojanfurst's beautiful picture above) This is my most popular image by some margin. I don't understand it either!


Kodak Ultramax 400 Trial by Elmer Duck, on Flickr

 

[biomed]

1,901 views - ???

 

[tomtofa]

I think sometimes it has to do with the title. Most of mine aren't titled; this one, with by far the most views, is called 'james kirk'. With a little thought one could probably get a massive spike in hits by titling their pics after popular Google and Flickr searches . . .

it doesn't surprise me that 'gear' shots are popular on flickr…some of my most viewed shots are of gear…i also have most of my images in sets according to the lens used.

"Just look at the pictures in Flickr" kind of suggestions when newbie ask for suggestion about lens would help boost pictures tagged with said lens/camera/film.

So, what causes a particular image to be viewed excessively compared to your other images? If it is being used on another site, is there any way to find out what site?

Repeating comment… as long as the picture is not a crap to even untrained eyes, making it searchable definitely helps, especially in less populated keywords/tags
I believe many use Flickr to look for free stock photo, so keywords used for stock photo would bring effect to the view count.

I have this camera that when I asked if it qualified as an Advanced Compact in said forum, some curmudgeon pooh-poohed the size of the sensor, and said it belonged in the P&S forum. It got moved by a moderator, so since there wasn't going to be any serious discussion, I deleted the post.

So here is my most viewed photo on Flickr, 1726 so far, and it's only been on the board since May.


Nikon P7700 Bracket Flash Portrait by br1078phot, on Flickr

It might not have a big sensor, but it does the job.

BTW: The second most viewed photo is this same rig flipped over in landscape mode.
