Random Photography

I know there's quite a few of us on here who like photography, and I thought in this thread we could all show off our favorite photos. They don't have to be urban, or Sheffield related, just ones that you like. Heres a couple of my faves:

A tree out by Chatsworth. Really pleased with this as it was out of a moving car.

Some little mushrooms:

Quite like this one, although its a bit random. Spotlight:

Here are a couple of random ones from New York. First, the view from my old flat. The Trump World Plaza is in the background.






The cable car to Roosevelt Island crossing the street



Coney Island. Bit of a dump really.

Nice pics by Paulmat and ATC. I love the quirkiness of many New York skyscrapers.

Yeah, I like cable cars so much I posted it twice. Should be fixed now though. Doesn't Cologne have a CC system too?

One more - a brutalist apartment block that seems to get broader as it gets higher.

I love the look of New York, really want to go there too!

My girlfriend went last year and it was snowing whilst she was there, looked really nice. Although she said it was absolutely freezing!

Brilliant pics there guys. That one of the swan is just amazing kyle.

£20,000 is quite a lot for one photo. How did you go abouts managing that?
