Fab Photos From Other People

I bought a new camera recently, and I’ve been snapping away. You can see the results here. However, in revisiting Flickr I’ve also renewed my appreciation for some of the amazing photography on the site. Examples:

Promesses d’automne by pierre-o

Scary + beautiful.

salita cupola by uberto

What I like about this, aside from the colors (can you tell I have a color fetish?), is that you can’t tell at first glance whether the stairs are going up, or in a bridge-like arc, or down. My initial take was the latter, but the sign argues otherwise.

Björk by mediaeater

The almighty Björk.

My sister-in-law’s pic. She and my brother are knitting fiends.

Lian at the BART Station by Brooke Anderson

My friend Lian, photographed by my friend Brooke, who not only takes fantastic pics but also helped me figure out which camera to buy.

    The cupola one is my favorite. ‘Prommesses’ makes me think of Bowie.
