I wouldn't ever call myself even an amateur photographer, but I found the cord that attaches my phone to my laptop so I've been able to upload some picture to my Facebook recently. My camera is only 3.2mp but I feel it does at least a partial job of capturing some of the beauty that surrounds where I live. =)


To open:



This was taken on my way home from sixth form, about 1pm give or take an hour and a half. Mid-autumn, as you can see the trees are going through three staes of colour, green, yellow and red. I love this time before Winter sets in. =D

Okay, so this one was taken like a week or two ago. It's actually the path Winston walks down in my story (which I need to update), the setting is actually based roughly on where I currently live.

I always write about where I live.
If you write what you are already intimately familiar with your stories, environments and characters will be far more believable.

Very nice scenery!

The pathway in the second one is rather foreboding, I like it. Autumn is defiantly the best time for that look, with the leaves marking an obvious trail. You should take a picture later in the evening and Photoshop some wispy ghosts in, then write a creepy story for it to go with.

Haha, nah it's only scary late at night, many a time have I 'run' through there on the way home from a party, pissed off my face and fearing for my life. xD

This was taken this morning, I wish I had an actual camera! =/

I've seen enough snow for awhile, thank you very much. And that looks like an empty meadow, why is there a very urban looking sign pointing to something?

[tlh1123]

Not sure if getting the sign in the picture was intentional but it adds a nice touch! Not sure how to describe it, different preferences I suppose but I enjoy it.

Also the scenery around your area is beautiful. I think it'd be a amazing place for a walk, seems calm and serene for the most part.

That sign in my mind simply says "Fuck".

I just noticed that there appears to be something behind that second tree, just to the left.
Possibly El Chupacabra.

I'm glad I wasn't the only one.

I imagine if the sign could talk, it would say "Yo, fuck this area over here", pointing with it's arrow.



OT: Great pics, I look forward to seeing more.

Nah, it's just old slendy. Him and I are tight, he rolls blunts in the underpass just beyond those trees.

It's an old horse track-cum-footpath, the sign says 'Horse Track, 15ft <---->'. I think 'serious fucking mud' would be more appropriate.

It was indeed a complete and utter fluke that I caught the sign, I'm glad I did though, it's a nice juxtaposition between subtle human entanglement and nature.



Fuck snow, one.


Fuck snow, two.

I fucking hate snow. I fucking hate it. Fucking snow.

[Affray]

You have more snow than I do right now.
Stupid weather being all flip-floppy.
It snowed where I am yesterday and it all melted by this morning.
Its Canada, I need some serious snow or I feel like my winter was a let down.

[No-Danico]

Oh, whatever. We got like, almost an inch here. Proportionally, that’s like three feet in Russia.

[Calvary]

At the top of my road - I wish I could have got some focus on the horizon...that was my aim, alas my zoom just made the picture grainy.

[tlh1123]

Everyone's neighborhood looks so nice... then there is mine hahaha

[Coconut Man]

Our neighborhood's fine....until the snow comes
