Milonga.be favourite pictures 2010
I have published a lot of pictures on this site in the last year and even I am curious to know which ones you liked most. So I did the following: I took all the pictures in the Milonga.be favourite tango pictures album, counted the number of views, comments and favourites and ranked the highest ones. But 2010 is not finished yet! So you can still influence the scores!

Here’s what you can do:

  • check the http://www.flickr.com/groups/milonga-be/pool/ photos
  • if you like a photo, click on the thumbnail to see it in full (and: the ‘views’ score goes up)
  • if you really like a picture, add a comment on the bottom, or make it a favourite with the star button on the top left (you will need a free Flickr/Yahoo account to log in). Remember, comments and favourites have more weight than just a view!!
  • if you think a picture that is not in the Milonga.be favourite tango pictures, but it totally deserves to be, let me know in the comments of the photo!

    • So this is your chance if you still want to let your vote count!
    Right after New Year 2010-2011 I will publish the top 30 pictures of 2010!

    Milonga @ Pianofabriek
    Did you know that the Pianofabriek milonga is one of the oldest in Brussels? It has been held for almost twenty years (since 1992) by Sergio & Gisela. I went there last Sunday to take pictures.

    As usual, the place was packed with beautiful people, and I was having fun taking pictures of that.

    Some clearly didn’t mind having a more posed picture.

    Oh, and Sergio: sorry for making your CDs skip. I promise not to jump from chairs anymore!
    All pics are in the Pianofabriek album.

    Nosotros has invited María Inés Bogado and Sebastián Jimenez, the 2010 world champions in tango salon & vals, to Brussels. They will give two days of workshops (18/19 Dec) and also perform at a special Saturday Patio de Tango. For details on the workshops, check the Nosotros website.

    We have 4 free tickets for the Saturday milonga, but for that you have to do something: you have to leave a comment on this blog post with a little tango anecdote: a funny story, your favourite song, how you started dancing, the weirdest milonga you ever had… Anything that you would like to share. On Thursday 16 Dec at 23:59 I will choose 4 random commenters from all the comments on this blog post, and they will be put on the guest list. So sharpen your pen and share a piece of your tango life with us! How do you leave a comment? Just look at the bottom of this article!
