Richard Avedon once said: “All photographs are accurate. None of them is the truth.”

Truth or not - the good news is: Hundreds of little Avedons were among the attendees of this year’s Blog World Expo. Everybody took pictures of everything and everybody else (especially of the ‘celebs’). Since we live in the age of photo sharing, I don’t have to rely on my own snapshots anymore. As of now, 4587 photos related to the BWE have been posted on Flickr. Wow - and all these pics were taken in 3 days (if you include Friday with all the BWE partner programs)!

Since I was curious what kind of pictures my fellow bloggers were taking, I made the effort to browse through Flickr and find the accounts which include a great variety of this year’s new media and blogging conference in Las Vegas.

These are my 10 most favorite Blog World Expo photo collections on Flickr:

(It’s not a ranking - they’re all good…)

  • Jason Falls (Social Media Explorer)
  • Wendy Piersall (WendyPiersall.com)
  • Brian Solis (Bub.blicio.us)
  • Shashi Belamkonda
  • Top Rank Online Marketing  (Lee Odden)
  • Technosailor (Technosailor)
  • Miss 604 (Miss 604)
  • Hilarywood 
  • Kylistah (Charnell Pugsley)
  • Shai Coggins (ShaiCoggins.com)
  • Special mention: Mostly Lisa, a.k.a. Lisa Bettany (I love her photography… although I wish she would have taken more pictures from the event..)

    If you still can’t get enough, check the most recent or the most interesting pictures tagged “bwe08″ (one of Lisa’s pictures is no. 1).

      Hi, Marc. Thanks for adding my Flickr stream of BWE to your Top 10 List. Glad you enjoyed it. :-) I kept thinking that I didn’t take enough photos because I was too busy working/meeting folks, etc. ‘was glad I still managed to record some of it in pics. Thanks again!

      Hi Marc,

      Thanks for adding my flickr feed on BWE. I was waiting for Tim Ferris and as I saw a lot of folkds meeting him I took some pictures of them just in case they didnt have a camera handy. I have been through moments of ” Oh ! How I wish i had a camera”. This was fun. I a thrilled and thankful .

      Regards,

      Shashi
