Really, I want to take it home.

What's that? Okay, but I don't see how killing brunettes is going to help.

Damn dog. . Er. . . Yes Master.

I can definitely top that squirrel pic. I took this only a few days ago and I guarantee I did not do anything with this in PhotoShop except crop it.

the fact that he's ash black doesn't help prove the case that he's not evil.

nah. black doesn't necessarily mean evil. He's probably just neglected by his peers and so has chosen to stand out by dressing goth. I bet he's a simpering little liberal under all that makeup. He wants to help, not hurt. It's just anger and frustration, not true evil. The truely evil ones know how to mingle into the normasl societies and strike when least expected (and often avoid suspicion).

I regret not taking my digital camera.

When I started to take the squirrel pic he was laying with his belly down on the rock but he moved before I could take the pic.

Time Square is insane. Sometimes crossing the street there would be 300 or more people crossing at a time. A sea of people.

I thought the billboards a bit much. I couldn't stand that.


Flux, your flash must have gone off, to get that kind of red-eye. If you can turn the flash off, do it. You can always brighten the pic in photoshop later if you need to.

AW ~ you can't "always brighten the pic in photoshop later" if there isn't enough detail in the negative. And capturing detail in a black subject is often challenging. It's better to know when to use fill flash and in this case it's actually used very well. I think it's waay easier to retouch the eyes then to try to brighten something that lacks the desired detail.

BTW cool photos Cac. One day I'll get to New York too. But I doubt I'll be able to afford a hotel right at Time Square.

Crash, I meant as a general thing. That being said, you are absolutely correct, and I do agree with you.
