I love photography, and I take every opportunity to get out and shoot pictures whenever possible, probably my favourite form of art, a picture says a 1000 words. Didn't see a specific thread just for photography in general, just the sunset thread, and sunsets deserve a thread all to their own. All you shutterbugs lets see some of your photography. I'll post some of my favourite shots I've taken over the years. Hope to see some wonderful photos like the wonderful photos in the sunset thread...

    Cool!

    Oddly your picture reminds me of a place in my old hometown in Denmark, just on the outskirts ...

    These are some I took on my most recent trip to Rome

    ^^^Great pictures. Mine, not Denmark...mine is a boardwalk at Point Pelee National Park near me in Ontario ... it's a bird watchers paradise and a major stop for monarch butterflies migrating to Mexico in September and October...

    I love photography and usually lug my camera around everywhere I go, though not so very recently.  I tend to take pictures of anything and everything that catches my eye, which can make short trips anywhere with my husband into long trips as he patiently waits while I stop and take a close up of a bug or whatever. lol.  I decided to nose around the forum for fellow photogs and see several threads but I couldn't decide where to jump in so I opted for this one.  When I think of it, I'll post a random photo here or in one of the other threads.  Now to scroll through and take a look at the world through others' eyes.  Some wonderful photos out there from what I can see.

    I wish!  It's just a really beautiful piece of art along one of the main commuter routes. They implemented a programme of beautification during their last construction phase.  How've you been?  It's been a long time since I last saw you around these parts.  Hope you're well  :)

    Are you still in Tampa or have you moved elsewhere?  You always share such beautiful, interesting photos.  I look forward to seeing more.

    I had to leave Tampa and move to Ohio about 2 years ago now.  The scenery is not quite as colorful here but I am getting used to it.
    I'm going to vacation in the Smokey Mountains soon. I'll come home with a bunch of beautiful photos from that, I'm sure! :)

    Would love some feedback on my material from you guys. I would love to make a career of it especially in music one way or another one day. I've doing it maybe properly three years since 21 and trying to learn and push my self as much as I can specially in the last year or so, I've really got into lots of different types of and it's helped. These photos you guys are posting are brilliant by the way, this thread is awesome. Thanks!

    Thanks so much I appreciate your sentiments, it's words like that what really really motivate me, and I don't get it a lot so thank you! Work though is so hard to come by even unpaid as we know, especially music. Damn it's a tough industry! I've been loving your posts by the way really eclectic array of pictures. All the best.
