Its not the best of pictures but still pretty cool, I just wish I knew how to photoshop chrome so I could edit myself out of the bumper. That was at a car show in Greeley, CO. It's not really the normal here at YT as it is really low but I still liked the look of it!
I also took this one back in 2005 I was flying from Salt Lake City, UT to Denver, CO the day before easter. It was taken with a Sony DSC-P52. I am an amateur photographer so most of my pictures are taken with my cell phone..

I've been meaning to put these up for a while now. They are scanned 8 X 10's that I had made up of some deployment photos I had taken while in the Navy so they aren't the best of quality. Photos were taken by a Cannon EOS Elan II with a Sigma 300mm lens.
First photo was of my sub in port at Bahrain UAE. Second photo is of evening colors in Singapore.

Thanks, If I remember I'll bring the 8 x 10's down to ya to see. These scans aren't even half the quality on those, and yet the 8 X 10's were blow ups of a scanned 4 x 6's in one of those photo machines at like walmart. lol. Not even sure if I still have those negatives or not.

Here are some shots from the Buckner Building in Whittier AK. Once the largest building in Alaska, it was built by the military to house nearly every resident of the port town of Whittier, Alaska. It was designed to be a "city under one roof" and includes everything a "normal" city would have; Theater, Medical Ward, Cafeteria, Staterooms, and of course a jail... In 1964 a 9.2 magnitude earthquake ripped the small city apart, killing 14 people and deeming the Buckner building unsafe.
Laced with asbestos, mold, mildew and various walking hazards, the building has remained an abandoned wasteland. All 5 floors are flooded from the melting of Whittier's average 253" of snow, leaving all floors an ice skating rink in the winter. Calcium deposits hang from the ceiling in the form of stalactites, graffiti and spray paint cover most of the walls, and almost every room has been hit with some form of a bat or axe.
Equipped with a full face respirator, steel toe boots, full coveralls, a hard hat, 80lbs of camera gear, and enough flashlights to light the entire city, we entered the building at the basement. Working our way through the building we captured what most people will never see; the inner workings of a trashed building. After 11 hours of walking and taking pictures, we barely scratched the surface on the amazing features of this building.
The following pictures are just some of many shots we took. All of these were taken with Tokina 12-24 lenses on various Canon bodies. All colors and effects were done while the shutter was open. The only PS that was applied was sharpening, RAW conversion, and occasional saturation reduction. Most of these shots range in time from 1-10 minute exposures.
Enjoy

It was cool exploring some of the old Nike Base aboves Anchorage and outside Fairbanks...lots of tunnels to explore.
Alaska is a target rich environment for photographers-incredible wildlife, scenery and of course the Northern Lights. I will have to see if I can find the pic I have of a Ch-47 with the light in the background...it is pretty cool.
I need to get back up there some day..
Thanks for bringing back some memories
edit: tax refund is coming...might need to get a better camera

The lil lady pickup a D90 a little while ago and I was messing around with it a bit.
This is just the neighbors garage, well what's left of if.
These were taken with the 70x300 tele lenses this past weekend on a back road by the Horseshoe Curve outside of Altoona.
This is a pic of the Gallitzin Tunnels built in the 1850's
Just starting to mess around with it a bit and so far I'm really liking it!!!
