My most popular photo

Now that Flickr has stats available for each photo, I've noticed the above image getting quite a lot of attention. It received 58 views yesterday, and has over 1,700 views since I posted it.

Apparently most people are finding it by searching for phrases related to 'christmas tree' in Yahoo! image search. Why Yahoo!? Because their search includes a great number of Flickr results. They own Flickr, after all.

I always find it bizarre when one photo gets more views than all the others. It makes me wonder what it is about that particular photo that people like.

I will admit, it is a very pretty image.
