• Arizona (Glass, and the Convention Center's Ass)
    7 replies, posted
I've lived in Arizona for nearly four years now, and I have to say it's one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen. I've never really done much photography, as I usually stick to tech-based Photoshop/design. However, I have acquired quite a few pictures of places I've been to and explored. The pictures might not be the most comprehensive or professional looking, but they're mainly just to capture the view of some of the cool things I've gotten a look at. I have no photographic ability as far as cameras go, so don't judge me on that, cause I already know how bad I am. :downs: They're all resized down to 1200/900, and media tagged for loading times and what not. The new Phoenix Convention Center building. Was more interested in the car show inside, but the design of the place is amazing, and it's all brand new.

It contains some of the coolest looking glasswork I've seen in a while, and looks amazing at night (so I am told).

[media]http://filesmelt.com/downloader/Hummingbird.png[/media] Well, I hope you enjoyed (or dreaded) these pictures. Maybe some time you'll drop by and get some pictures for yourself. That's all I have prepared for now, so until next time.
I really like them! Nice! The hummingbird one is fantastic.
I've lived in Arizona for 18 years. I hate it.
wow, it takes skill to get a close up shot of a humming bird, good job on that.
[QUOTE=onox37;16726247]I've lived in Arizona for 18 years. I hate it.[/QUOTE] I like it here. I used to live in South Carolina, after moving there from San Francisco. I got used to the heat (and have a swimming pool.)

[QUOTE=onox37;16740017]That's what you say now.[/QUOTE] Except there it can go up to 100 with a 90% humidity level. I like the dry heat here more.
most of these look like they were rendered and/or CGI. amazingly good pictures.
