I was musing on [this post](http://www.brianmicklethwait.com/index.php/weblog/digital%5Fpreservation/?ref=onemanandhisblog.com) earlier. Brian’s point is that, in the long term, pictures of the mundane are at least as interesting as the unusual or the artistic. And he’s right.

One of the things I love about [Flickr](http://www.flickr.com/?ref=onemanandhisblog.com), the photo-sharing site, is that the balance of �art� to �mundane� is heavily biased towards the mundane. You see just as many pics of the everyday as you do specifically crafted examples of photographic art. It’s becoming a huge repository of images of the way we live today.

Furthering the idea, I started looking around the London groups, looking at the balance of ordinary versus art postings, and getting an idea of how the everyday streetscape was being recorded. I couldn’t help but notice that Lewisham wasn’t well represented at all. So, I created [a Lewisham group](http://www.flickr.com/groups/lewisham/?ref=onemanandhisblog.com) on Flickr. Go, join, post pictures of Lewisham borough. You know it makes sense.
