That picture above is from Flickr user iessi, who's quickly becoming one of our favorite local photographers on Flickr. Check out her photostream.
Here are a few more local pics that recently caught our eye:
+ Festin2008 captured a rainbow arcing over the The Track.
+ Look at the texture of the track surface in this pic by mikefurgang.
+ Check out this great reflection of the Troy Proctor's that invisible city photography captured. The pic is part of a photo set called "In Search of Troy."
+ The aptly-user-named photosfromonhigh has a great overhead shot of the curve of the elevated road leading toward the Corning Tower.
+ And altuwa (or, as we know him from commenting here at AOA, Sebastien), snapped some good pictures of the Bitter:Sweet show at Revolution Hall.

Thanks for the link :)
There is a great community of pretty talented photographers in the Capital District; some of them are really active on Flickr, as you mentioned here, and contribute to several groups/pool dedicated to the Capital District. I can mention a few here, by increasing "scope" (disclaimer, I'm the admin of the first two, but we are all a pretty happy family):
- Center Square, Albany, NY
- Albany, NY
- Troy, NY
- Saratoga Springs, NY
- Schenectady, NY
- Lake George, NY
- 518: Capital District (NY)
- Upstate New York

These are great! I'm a member of a couple of the above Flickr groups, and I'm the admin for a group of photographers that gets together pretty frequently to go on shoots and conduct photography meetings/discussions. Our Flickr page is here:
