Seeing as I can't find a suitable thread to post this in I suppose I'd better start one. This thread is for the members of WP to showcase the (non-portrait) photos they have taken recently.

I'll start by posting one of my own:

Ormskirk Road/North Road/Tithebarn Street from the overhead Ringway bridge, Preston

interesting- i like the crisp textures in your photo. the subdued color palette is also curious, it has a palpably "cold" look to it. i wish there was some easy way to get the pics from my antediluvian camera onto this forum.

Strange thing is that I actually bumped the saturation levels up in PP!

Can you get your photos from your memory card onto your PC? It should be fairly easy to deal with afterwards.

i still use an old 35mm pentax k1000 film camera, i use it with 400 speed film because the 1.4 lens makes the camera light-sensitive enough to where i never have to use a flash even with night scenes, i just brace the camera against a light post. no digital camera, i've found, could match that light sensitivity without a lot of unpleasant jpeg artifacts. needless to say, scanning pics is a pain.
