  1. Most people that I meet on my photography adventures don't know that "taking pictures for Wikipedia" is a thing. So, when I'm out shooting, I often engage in conversations about how Wikipedia needs more photos. That's what happened this morning, when I took this image for the article "Greater white-fronted goose":

  2. The beauty of sharing your work under a free license: only a month after I took this image of Guy de Maupassant's birthplace in Normandy, a French website already re-used it. I love it when people around the world use freely licensed photos that I take for Wikipedia!
