Default Abandoned Toronado

I drive by this fairly regularly so stopped to shoot on Wednesday evening. Horrible light (behind the car, low in the sky coming almost directly into the lens unless I ducked way down, instead of sideways or even directly above) so the pictures are a bit dark in places but it's quite a ways away so I can't exactly drive out there on a whim.









C&C welcome and appreciated!

Dont be afraid to move some of the brush and vegetation away from your shots. #3 above would be fantastic if you left the green branch right where it is but removed the dry brown branches that are blurry in the front away from the shot.

Keep shooting your doing well, I FTR like the first shot it shows the car nicely. You did a nice job shooting into the sun there.

Good point, and I agree. I was in my "good clothes" and running late for church so I really couldn't get too serious with it. I may try again later, when I can take my time and also have some good light.

Thanks for the C&C, as always.

^ I hear that, oh another thing you should know in photography rarely does everything come together perfectly.


some guy named Murphy made sure of that!

True, that. I just need to carry my camera around more often to take immediate advantage of photo opportunities at any time.
