Today while searching for images using Yahoo's search, I noticed that most of the results found are from flickr. Flickr is a photo sharing site own by yahoo just like Picasa by google.
Here is a preview of the result when I searched for Jantar Mantar. (a monument situated in New Delhi, India) I am surprised to see that 15 out of 18 images on the first page are from flickr and only 3 are from other sites.

Then I decided to do it again, but this time I searched for Lotus Temple. And here is the result.

This time again 15 out of 18 are from flickr. I know yahoo owns this but that doesn't means that the world end there. I don't know whether this is b'coz of their too liking for flickr or inability to search elsewhere.
I am not saying that the results found were not good. They are good but better if there are variety to look from.
