Local is the new global.  The internet lets you communicate with people around the world, but most people use it to find things in their own backyards - weather, movies, restaurants, art shows, dates…  We’re all about local at Boston Photography Focus and the PRC, although we consider local to be all of metro Boston, all of Massachusetts, and all of New England, which sometimes includes New York City.

So we’re happy to acknowledge links and shouts from Universal Hub and Dan’s flickr list of regional groups.  Dan’s list includes our own New England Survey Online, and lots of other fun local flickr communities, such as the always artsy Union Square 02143, my hometown Cambridge, MA, our buddies at Massart (digital_Massart), Boston Photo Nerds and (I wonder if there is a lot of overlap?) Boston’s Single Flickrites, and the always popular Lomo it Boston.  And don’t forget to check out the PRC’s own little corner of flickr.

So there’s not really much of an excuse not to share your photos with like-minded folks.  Drop us a line and let us know about your favorite photo groups, online or off!
