Man, these came out way better than I thought they would. Mabye Coolpix cameras aren't so bad.

This was the late entry for "Wild" I mentioned earlier. I see this view riding home on the bus every day, and I thought it looked artsy fartsy enough to feature.

This is the living area of the homeless guy under the bridge by my house. :(

This is my kitty! :D


I also got a picture of a literally perfect rainbow earlier this afternoon, but I had to do it in two shots and haven't stuck the pictures together yet so that'll come a bit later.

More as the situation develops!

not stuck together quite as flawlessly as I would have hoped, but whatever.

I actually really like how one side is a different tone than the other, for some reason :<

original pics, just because:

Right on GW. I like the under the bridge shot. Was the guy there or did you sneak into his house while he was away? You should spray paint lines in the dirt for where his walls would be. Make him a bathroom too.

I like the manhole shot, but you should've gotten further away from it.

The bridge shot looks a tad shaky and a bit off center. There's nothing my eyes gravitate toward in the shot.

Otherwise, nice photos.

The bum house has great angles in it.

lol :<

I took three different shots of the manhole, and after sitting on it for a bit I actually do like the furthest-away one (http://img176.imageshack.us/img176/8477/pics001residedcc0.jpg) the best.

It might be a while before I do anything with this again, only the first picture wasn't a spur of the moment type thing and if I keep doing stuff without planning it at least a little bit I'm not going to get any better ;(

I do all my photography without too much planning. All i do with it is think, okay, is there a way i could make this better if i get closer/farther away or crop it differently?

What's going on behind your kitty there? I don't know much about photography but some of the stuff in that picture is distracting. Also kitty's out of focus :p
