Flickr Collections & Sets

I’ve been having a few sleepless nights (Okay, maybe five minutes here, five minutes there) over a good, obvious and productive organization scheme for my flickr page. Every time I think I come up with a good way to break my photos up into collections and sets I grow to dislike the decision.

So far I have a few master collections, one for personal sets (fun shots), one for professional sets (paid clients) and one for travel. Inside those are breakdowns like food photography, experimental, light painting. Some go plenty deep – under Travel I have collections for each state, then another collection for each city and then sets for images I took in that city. Of course, I only list cities and states when I have images to put there.

I still haven’t found my zen of flickr organization, what do you do? Are your images in some sort of organization or pretty much tossed into a few loosely relevant sets? Leave a comment below and feel free to leave a URL to your flickr stream, especially if you have a tasty organization scheme we can stea, er, borrow.

I give you credit – yours is more organized than mine. But I really like what you have done. Very Creative!! :)
