Photographs

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

kinda pisses me off that as I used to do it all in camera/darkroom, but what the hey! I abuse plenty of other techniques via PShop. All's well that ends well I guess.

I got something similar in Galway 2 years ago, really beautiful and clear and turquoise. And that was the Atlantic, so it must have been a good day! :lol:

If I can find a photo I'll slap it up.

Thats a really nice Photo and I have to say the gas station takes nothing from it.
Thanks! :D I was wise enough to cut out the bottom bit though, as that's a real disgrace :lol:

I'll see if I can do a couple more soon, seeing people like it :D

Another couple I took back in the UK I rather like (probably posted them before though)

Glasgow, bumped into this when I was trying to get back to the river.

Last one's probably pretty cliché touristy, but still quite fond of the black background and the lightness of the billboards to contrast that.

I like all the mirrory ones I've seen now too, very nice effect indeed :notworthy:

That's a cracker - love the way the natural framing sends your eye to the distant building. Very nice!

Think you're referring to the picture below rather than the one above which was the one I meant to comment?

Thanks still :D :notworthy:
