Pix from and around your area?

[termis]

I had to duck into the train station, so took a couple quick cellphone shots around Melbourne CBD (basically, downtown).

Flinders Station -- this is the essentially the center of Melbourne, as everything grew out from here.


St. Paul's Cathedral -- Kitty-corner from Flinders station.  I basically just turned around from the first shot and took this one.


Typical scene from the CBD.  Old buildings (or at least old-style facades) mixed in with the new.


I had some other shots after this, but somehow messed up the resolution setting on the cellphone and they came out too small.

Instead of pictures from around my area, how about video?  Here is a bunch of video footage I shot and edited around my area of dwelling; Denver, CO, USA:

Cool pics termis. 

Just curious: Have you had many, if any, run-ins with poisonous insects/arachnids so far? That's the one thing that would freak me out, are the poisonous creatures down there. heh

Damn Joe, you have definitely inspired me.

I just might do the same in my other surrounding cities like Richmond, Hopewell, Colonial Heights and Chesterfield.

Haha, yeah, I heard of some spider being down here as well, but I think most of the huge creepy stuff is further up north where it's a bit more humid and hotter.  I've yet to see even a roach down here just yet, and the place where we live isn't the newest of places.  So generally speaking, it's not too bad (again, I hear there are some massive roaches up north), though I'm sure I'll see one of these things sooner or later.

Biggest annoyance so far are the damn flies in the summer.  They're vicious here -- they'll continually fly right in to your face for whatever reason.  I quickly learned the "Australian Salute" when I got here (swatting away flies that continually land on your nose, eyes, lips, etc).

I'd love to make recordings like that but since I live in london my camera would probably get snatched from my hands or.. i'd probably bump into the local police who'd accuse me of suspicious terrorist activities here..  Something like that happened on the news a few months ago where some community police made some german tourists erase the photos on their camera citing terrorrist activities because the tourists were taking snaps of the public transport buses>.>

Because Youtube's version of HD is only 853x480 which is just 16:9 standard definition.  But for Youtube, it is HD compared to the other options.

Tats, nice pics!  I am guessing you live in Japan, or at least a block or two away from it.    Actually that is not possible because people in Japan are way too cool to talk to us commoners.  Why are not ALL pictures copyright by you?  Did you steal them to impress us?  I bet you did!!!!!!

I am guessing you live in Japan, or at least a block or two away from it.

you are right.

Actually that is not possible because people in Japan are way too cool to talk to us commoners. 

you are wrong.

Why are not ALL pictures copyright by you?

Did you steal them to impress us?  I bet you did!!!!!!
