Creature of the night

So with less than 2 weeks till i specialize at college I'm wondering the streets
of my home with Ed at some obscene hour of the morning. I have no clue
if your photographeror proffesional of sorts. I am not. My parents have let me play with
their SLR's before but intill very recently I've not had the freedom of my own.


At college we got a standard photo introduction and it's surprising how
little I knew. A few simple twists and clicks and you can get way
past the auto pic button and find a whole new obbession blossom.
I end up in all sorts of positions: up tress hanging off walls crouching under
bushes. All in the name of finding a decent photo. Needless to say on
more than one occasion I've recieved less than friendly looks from passers
by. The best yet has to be the woman that paused for a moment as they
witnessed me dangling by arm and leg from a small tree before
reaching into their bag and producing acamera with
which they clicked away. I struggled with wether or not to respect
their taking the oppurtunity or get annoyed that I had made all the
effort while she reaps the benefits. You will be pleased to know
I did in the end get a great picture of a balding man as he
passed beneath me.

What makes the whole thing worse is that these photos have nothing to
do with college work. Then again no one all my art had to be college
related does it?





 This one below, right here, yeah it's favourite of the night. Taken by messing with the shutter priority
and just walked forward over the bridge while it was taking the photo. Most of them
were taken this way.



The second one like this, further up is more intresting.
So go look at it again.
