my_photos u24 you may like them: puremango.co.uk/photos eventually I'll get some thumbnails, but at the moment there are just a bunch of wallpaper-sized pics I've taken over the last few months. 061011 ... nom i like them 061011 ... u24 :) it's nice to 'hear' your 'voice', nom. 061011 ... endless desire i lost a lot of photos when my hardrive crashed... well, almost all of them actually. but i still have one session that particularly liked and i have all my non-digital stuff... now i just need to build my own dark room and im set ;) http://pics.livejournal.com/mytwohands/gallery/0000rxhr it's one of my favourites. you can view the pictures bigger if you so choose. 061012 ... endless desire dude, some of those are really awesome, u24 061012 ... u24 thanks :-) one day I'll get a proper gallery together like you have. I'll be adding a few more pics over the next few days. How long ago did the drive crash and do you still have it - you may be able to recover some files. I like the industrial theme of your pics, particularly nos 51 and 47. Some seem a little dark (in terms of lighting, not mood) but maybe that's just my laptop screen. Are these film or digital, and what sort of camera(s) do you use? 061022 ... nom 0678_3 is really wow 061022 ... u24 heh, yeah it's a good'un. there's actually a little spider in the snowdrop, if you enlarge it. I used it as the cover image for my IT project, entitled "anansie". They're all digital pics taken with a 4MP Fuji Camera. The most processing I ever do is to sharpen/lighten/darken them sometimes. (except for 2969_5, obviously!) 061023 ... u24 updated. 061030 ... u24 ... and just make everyone think i'm a psycho, you can see my knife collection here: puremango.co.uk/knives/ they're not very good images; it was too bright and the angle is really strange. I need to redo them all. before you ask, i have no idea why i collect knives. i was given a penknife when i was a kid and i guess it just grew from there. i also used to collect bottles of port wine. everyone needs a hobby, eh? I also throw and catch some of the knives. As you can see, I don't collect any particular style, it's mostly just what appeals to me. 061031 ...
