Photography

[sqrage]

So I've been bored lately, and been growing out of the interest I once had in computers and now find photography really interesting.

Here's a picture I took today, I like the outcome. [Enhanced with photoshop.]

No offense, but you took a picture of a grate. Not exactly art.

Is it better if you see the original? :\

No offense, but I think BitmapPirate's right.

It does look like a grate, but has a cool feel to it. It's grungy and could make a decent desktop wallpaper.

I like it nice to see some photography plus its good to use in sigs as textures so I made you one

It's got a nice texture. You could definitely use it as a background or a bitmap fill for something.

Keep up the good work!

Thanks, I was trying to focus on keeping it clean, and not blurred, my hands are usually really shaky so it's not too easy. I'll try to take a picture of something more interesting next time. :]

The quality in that picture is amazing. What type of camera do you have?

I actually don't like the quality too much and was thinking of getting a new camera, sadly I'm poor :p . Here is the original.

If you still think that's good, then it's a Samsung Digimax201. (2megapixels, ewww :P )

What exactly is that a picture of anyway? The stairs/ladder, brick wall, and the fact that it's rusty metal make me think fire escape, but it's over water with plant life underneath. Part of a dock or balcony maybe?

I think it looks cool.

Thanks. :]

It actually is a fire escape, I live on the second floor and there's a small tree underneath. :]

[BlackmarketKraig]

Yeah, I think it's quite cool and would be a wicked texture to use in Photoshop.

I find it unfortunate that so many people refuse to look at everyday objects within a photographic setting as not being art. I for one know where you are coming from and actually like the "grate" idea. Here is a cool pic that I took that I think you will like.

Don't let others bring you down, it's a great pic has a nice effect, haven't seen any one do photography in ages! Well done

[lennen13]

thx. photography is more of a spare time thing. It happens when it happens but I am slowly aquiring a port.

WOW, i must be playing to many games because the first pic looks like some graphics in a game, maybe its time for me to take a break from gaming? Any way cool stuff.

[lennen13]

Close ups of plants more often than not provide interesting subject matter, but I prefer buildings, industrail settings, which is why I liked the grate, and nature settings. heres another pic
