Need colour?

My apologies to my Contacts for just replacing all three of my photos that I posted 7+ hours ago! I almost added a comment to a Help thread just now about photos not showing up in My Contacts, but decided I'd rather try reposting instead. For about a week now, my newly uploaded images can eventually get maybe a couple of comments and a handful of views in hours and hours - very strange and unusual. I HATE replacing any of mine, as it really annoys me when some people do this every day, sometimes more than once, pushing everyone else's images further away from the first page of My Contacts Images. Occasionally, the date on which the image was taken is even changed, when they replace it many hours later. I think if one has had maybe 150 views and 60 or 70 comments on a particular photo, it's kind of thoughtless and selfish to replace it, obviously to get even more views, comments, etc. If it didn't bury other people's images, that would be something else. However, it does do this. In fact, I have so often missed Contacts' images because I've noticed a particular image in My Contacts' images and not realized it had been replaced and so appeared nearer the beginning again. I mistakenly just assumed not many people had posted new photos. PLEASE do be thoughtful towards your Flickr friends and Contacts. This and certain other practices have begun to really disappoint me in recent times, and taken away a lot of the enjoyment of Flickr : )

I think this has to be a Poppy? Taken at the Reader Rock Garden early last September. Maybe I should have saved this photo to upload when we are in the midst of our next snowfall, LOL. We are having glorious, sunny days at the moment, but of course no plants are foolish enough to start pushing up through the soil yet.
