As a member of Brainstorms, I participated in this year's Daypix, an annual event in which interested photographers are asked to record their day photographically, starting early the day before New Year Day, and ending late the day after.
The idea is to share a capsule look at the photographer's life for these few days. It proved to be fun, inspiring, and a very nice way to get to know people one meets online. The response to my days was so good that I decided to post it on Flickr.
Actually, I didn't decide to post them to Flickr, I decided to post them to a TypePad photo album, under the mistaken impression that TypePad had figured out how to direct different photo albums to different weblogs. Which they have not, apparently, done.
So Flickr it is. If you click the map, it will take you to my set: Daypix 2006. If you click the map photo in that box you can navigate the set by clicking the next photo in the set, complete with titles. Or you can watch it as a slideshow, with no narrative/ titles.
The narrative/title problem is why I would have preferred a photo album this time.
Or, you can skip it; these are not my best photos, but they are a snapshot of three- days- in- the- life . . .

it was really fun to see your digs and meet your critters. what an absolutely lovely nest you've created for yourself. the garden seems especially dreamy. it was also great to see the mountain elm. we had one in the back yard when i was little but it died, and they're rare out here so i hardly ever get to reminisce. those berries went into a lot of special mudpies...

I left a comment on the set, but just to say here how wonderful they are.

Beautiful work! Also I use typepad and have photo albums on one blog but not the other. Is that what you were trying to do or did I misunderstand the problem?

Oh, I'm so glad you folks liked it. I'm planning to replace the small photos at some point with higher resolution ones; sometimes it matters.
Robin, my problem is that the TypePad photo albums will point to only one blog -- whichever blog you have identified as your 'main' blog. Because I have a private family photo site, that main blog is not Watermark.
So, I could link a photo album to Watermark, but it would point back to another site. Very frustrating.
