I was going to start an ordinary photo thread and then realized that the last one was only two months back. So here's something new instead. Photos are to feature landscapes. To broaden the conditions, anything that doesn't feature people as a primary focus goes - including photos of cities, sculptures, sunsets and so on. It may contain persons, but preferably not in the foreground. Oh, and it should be self-made, not googled, of course. Here's my first one (sorry about the size, I'll shrink it when I have time): On a side note, I appear to have 6666 posts. But I promised I wouldn't post a new topic to celebrate this, and technically I didn't. Edit: Shrunk with Picasa. Link to full size.

Congratulations, Arancaytar! Dikiyoba didn't actually take this picture, but Dikiyoba was standing there when it was taken and was the one who created the PowerPoint it got put it, so it ought to count. Posts: 4346 | Registered: Friday, December 23 2005 08:00 |

Perhaps the title should have a warning. Here be horrific scrolling and huge downloads! —Alorael, who has several landscape photos, none of which are in digital form. Posts: 14579 | Registered: Saturday, December 1 2001 08:00 |

This here is an image I took while hanging out of my second story window. The image is only around 100kb so it should be safe enough to put up here. Posts: 776 | Registered: Friday, July 4 2003 07:00 |

I live right behind the cliff in background. BTW the picture was taken on an island in the lake. [ Tuesday, October 24, 2006 20:34: Message edited by: VCH ] -------------------- The Knight Between Posts. Posts: 2395 | Registered: Friday, November 2 2001 08:00 |

Just as long as you understand that tool is a title of respect. And congrats, now shrink the damn picture already. -------------------- quote: Posts: 4114 | Registered: Monday, April 25 2005 07:00 |

Congratulations for 6666 posts! Hmm, posting in 2 celebration topics in as many minutes... 500 won't be long... Well, okay, technically this isn't a celebration topic. But I can still post without having a landscape photo. [ Tuesday, October 24, 2006 21:22: Message edited by: The Stew Boy ] Posts: 587 | Registered: Tuesday, April 1 2003 08:00 |

Hm... let's see if this works. I've got a few nice shots from the trip I took this August. I want to show off some pictures of St. Louis (i.e.: the Arch and Busch Stadium), but I'm too lazy to shrink 'em right now. And I've got more like these if people care to see. Pic #1 Pic #2 EDIT: Right, how could I not notice the true intent of this topic?! Congrats, Aran!

quote:It was not! I planned to start a photo thread for some time, and then noticed that I was close, so I used that post to start it. Don't believe those baseless accusations, as if I were someone who celebrated a postcount! ;) And I care to see, muchly. Those are very nice.

Taking a photo of the sun from a mobile phone while stopped at a red light came out about as badly as might be expected. I could probably get it to look better if I messed around with the colours some more, but I don't have time, so here it is. -------------------- The Empire Always Loses: This Time For Sure!

Originally by Arancaytar: quote:But you're doing a good deed! You're helping Stew Boy get to 500 posts! Dikiyoba will probably post another landscaping picture here later, just to keep in line with the real intent of the thread. Posts: 4346 | Registered: Friday, December 23 2005 08:00 |

These grape fields belong to Francis Ford Coppola. Too bad I don't drink. Those mountains in the background and the proximity of the ocean make Napa Valley an ideal place to grow wine grapes. Here I am helping myself to some of the director's fine crop. Mmm, worthey of an Emperor. -------------------- You lose. Posts: 2156 | Registered: Thursday, August 24 2006 07:00 |

Here's the view from my old house in Montana: You can see the Missouri River, about 10 miles after it starts, on the right and the notorious gravel road snaking up the hill on the left. Unfortunately, my new house is in the middle of town. :( -------------------- -ben4808 Posts: 3360 | Registered: Friday, June 25 2004 07:00 |

This one was taken out of the window of our van at 40mph. I really like our digital camera. I need to get it fixed though. The zoom lens won't come out at the moment. I can't take a picture of anything. :( -------------------- "Even the worst Terror from Hell can be transformed to a testimony from Heaven!" - Rev.
