[QUOTE="Pretzel, post: 213603, member: 12257"] And now we interrupt your regular programming, which involves a few more lunchtime shots of geese (and the like) to bring you today's artistic venture, "Urban Autumn". Each shot in this series was captured with the AF-S 50mm 1.8G There are so many shots, this time of year, of beautiful countrysides aglow in the colors of Fall. Well... today I found the often overlooked beauty that hides right in the heart of the city. We pass it by, every day, without pausing for a second glance. It all begins with the beauty we can find just outside our very own front door. [ATTACH=CONFIG]57965._xfImport[/ATTACH] There's nothing quite like a freshly washed world, from the scent of the air to the feel of the wind on your face. [ATTACH=CONFIG]57951._xfImport[/ATTACH] I've often complained about having to park in the back lot, so far from the doors that lead to a cubicle world. Today, I did not. [ATTACH=CONFIG]57952._xfImport[/ATTACH] Even the wind-beaten trees in the midst of the city shine beauty on the hum drum rat race. [ATTACH=CONFIG]57953._xfImport[/ATTACH] A lonely beauty, viewed from afar. [ATTACH=CONFIG]57954._xfImport[/ATTACH] Special delivery? I think so. [ATTACH=CONFIG]57955._xfImport[/ATTACH] Surrounded by the sterile colors of the city, she glows... [ATTACH=CONFIG]57956._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]57960._xfImport[/ATTACH] Even though the walls may try to isolate the mind, a quick glance allows that same mind to wander to far more exotic lands... [ATTACH=CONFIG]57962._xfImport[/ATTACH] Even at night, the world... she is alive. A security light sets her beauty afire. (Had fun finding the settings for this one to get the "glow" I wanted. ISO 200, f2.8, 2.5 seconds) [ATTACH=CONFIG]57963._xfImport[/ATTACH] Will this late worker even notice when they, too, escape the working realm? (same trees as in the previous shot, but wanted it to be a bit darker to show how "hidden" the beauty could be. ISO 100, f2.8, 1 second) [ATTACH=CONFIG]57964._xfImport[/ATTACH] Many thanks for letting me bore you whilst I dabble with the artistic... :) [/QUOTE]
