Images from Manhattan

[Bambi]

I didn't get a lot of time for picture taking but managed to get some.

this one was for Michael Law: the NY Gangsta Squirrel!

more to follow :D

on a more sober note, it's pretty bad when both the homeless person and the people walking are acting like it's all business as usual.

Go buy your new camera and show us shots from that Bambi :)

Hi Bambi

There is so much to see in NYC! Did you get to see the Flat Iron Building? It's my fav in NYC. I can't wait to get back which is unusual for me. Being a country boy I usually hate being in the city.

Nice photos, really like the pic of the flatiron building but I am partial to them ....

[Bambi]

If I had bought a new camera I would be taking pictures with it but I haven't yet..... I still need to make my decision. And I haven't yet. Plus there's this whole pesky saving money thing.... :rolleyes:

here's a few more:

I knew the Squirrel was turning bad when he started listening to lots of rap music "All the foxes and weasels gonna die so we can move to New York and just get high!" Didn't think he'd actually do it though :D

Traffic Control. I watched her a few minutes. It was like watching someone dance, only with buses, cars and trucks! :eek:

I think you could have defined your subject better. If not when you took the picture then in post prepossessing by cropping the picture.

Hey John ... welcome ph.ca :)

One thing ... this is the 'show your photo' section of the forums ... which is not really for critique. The 'Critique' section of the forums is for that :)

The idea is so you can put a photo up just simply to show it off OR if you put it in the critiques section ... you can put it up in order to get peoples opinions, advice, critique, in order to learn.

[Bambi]

thank you Antz and MA.

Papajohn: do you mean a closer crop? I have tried but I lose too much resolution because of the distance I took the shot from. However, I could try playing with it if you like :)
