OK, so yesterday, [livejournal.com profile] stinabat was the first to take up the challenge of giving me an assignment. Her suggestion was "something gritty/ something with lots of texture/ something very urban." I think this photo captures all of those, yes?

That was fun! It took me out of my routine, had me checking out alleys and places I don't normally look for lens fodder, and gave me some exercise. Thank you for the great suggestion!

I will be working on the other suggestions/assignments in the weeks to come, and it's not too late to make more. Keep 'em coming!

Oh! And on the computer front: a Mac tower and monitor are coming home with me today, thanks to our Mac guru and the boss man. Yay!

love it. nice job! i particularly like the underside of the rail road (?) bridge/overpass. really nice composition with the converging lines. the juxtaposition of smooth and rough textures as well as the lighting. it all works. visually yummy.

for me, it'a a three way tie with the bridge, the broken window and the recording studio.

fun. THANKS.

Thank *you*! You really inspired me. I couldn't wait to walk downtown after work yesterday. :)
