Hello Futurama! Good to see you again! :)

3: Woow. Lovely colors and what a great reflection! Did you use a pol filter?
Somehow I like the composition. But maybe it could be better. It depends on what you want to show us.

7: It is handheld? Because it looks like the tall biulding is unsharp?

9. I love this photo. It is telling me a story. And I like how the swans are anonymous because they are black. :)
The symmetry is great with the shadows, maybe it was an idea? :P

10. You have not got rain in a while?! (It almost looks fluffy :P )

haha thanks :p

Yeah I used a cp filter for most of the pictures above. Well I guess I should have a little bit more of the sky in that one.

Nope! I used 15 or 20sec shutter speed for that one but I guess my camera kinda focused on the buss in the foreground so the building got a bit out of focus -.- It's gonna be manual focus set to infinity the next time.

I am glad you like #9. I think I took it because I saw the cool reflections in the water of those birds lol. Oh and those huge white birds are no swans I think they are American white pelicans.

Well it rained for like five minutes yesterday -.- and that was the first time it rained in like a week or two, IDR.

Wow they are really nice!
It's nice to see that you are trying to get out of your usual pctures :hug:

Lat one is totally pro imo!!!
And I really like the drama of the sunset in #3..
My favorite is probably the one with the birds though, for the light and composition....

These are all excellent shots. I think I've stayed at that hotel in #7...where is that?

I personally think 3 is the best.

#9 is very cool, and so was #2 (the colors in the water, the dim lit building off in the distance, i love it :) )

Nice shots Futu! I love the sunset that has that awesome deep red color. Don't see how the composition could get much better. Maybe the one thing would be to show a bit less of the water once it hits that deep purplish color and a bit more sky (And thats being very picky). Love the shot!

Oh geez! You are making my cheeks all red with all those nice comments :)
Well I guess lately I have started to try really hard to take as few snapshots as possible and actually take time to look into the viewfinder first to find the right composition and then press the shutter button.

Thanks, buddy!
hmm I am not sure if the tall building in #7 is a hotel or not lol but all the pictures above were taken in Regina Saskatchewan, Canada.

Hey! Thanks!
