Ok, I got a lot of work to do, Just having a hard time finding stuff worth shooting, Not to mention these random dumb asses that keep popping up yelling all angry.

So many people either hate photographers or they're too inbred to know what I'm doing, lol

You'll find something to work on eventually. One thing I learned from a pro photographer is that you can make any location you work at beautiful in your photos. You just have to have the vision to make it work. :thumbs up That photo I took of Peara's Civic was taken in a dead neighborhood behind my house when the housing market crashed in Stockton. If you see it in real life you would think it's a horrible place to grab nice pics. lol

I tried taking pics of the meteor shower the other night but really did catch anything good. I thought I grabbed a nice one here but upon closer look, I think it's just a plane:


Here's an actual one I caught:

Im not sure what this is, but its a different angle....It makes me think of a close shot of my lens and many firework reflections from in front of it...looks intense.

Who cares if u think there is crap wrong with it....to some people it could the most amazing thing. :)
Keep on shooting man...remember its the photographer not the camera that gets great pictures..:D

lol...nice man..i hope that doesn't stop from taking any pictures...They can't do anything to you or give u a ticket unless somewhere on the property it says no trespassing.

I don't know if u subscribe to a magazine called .PDNedu....it explained all the rules that photographers need to know and their boundaries. i wish i could just upload it. lol

From what i read...just my two cents take it or leave it....You can take whatever pictures you want as long as
One your not on private property, and Two...they have a sign that says No trespassing and your in that zone.

btw....i like the spongebob theme you have going on in ur sig hahahaha.

Yeah, I read the laws a while back, Before I got my camera actually.

I. Anyone in a public place can take pictures of anything they want. Public places include parks, sidewalks, malls, etc. Malls? Yeah. Even though it’s technically private property, being open to the public makes it public space.

II. If you are on public property, you can take pictures of private property. If a building, for example, is visible from the sidewalk, it’s fair game.

III. If you are on private property and are asked not to take pictures, you are obligated to honor that request. This includes posted signs.

IV. Sensitive government buildings (military bases, nuclear facilities) can prohibit photography if it is deemed a threat to national security.

V. People can be photographed if they are in public (without their consent) unless they have secluded themselves and can expect a reasonable degree of privacy. Kids swimming in a fountain? Okay. Somebody entering their PIN at the ATM? Not okay.

VI. The following can almost always be photographed from public places, despite popular opinion:

accident & fire scenes, criminal activities
bridges & other infrastructure, transportation facilities (i.e. airports)
industrial facilities, Superfund sites
public utilities, residential & commercial buildings
children, celebrities, law enforcement officers
UFOs, the Loch Ness Monster, Chuck Norris

VII. Although “security” is often given as the reason somebody doesn’t want you to take photos, it’s rarely valid. Taking a photo of a publicly visible subject does not constitute terrorism, nor does it infringe on a company’s trade secrets.

VIII. If you are challenged, you do not have to explain why you are taking pictures, nor to you have to disclose your identity (except in some cases when questioned by a law enforcement officer.)

IX. Private parties have very limited rights to detain you against your will, and can be subject to legal action if they harass you.

X. If someone tries to confiscate your camera and/or film, you don’t have to give it to them. If they take it by force or threaten you, they can be liable for things like theft and coercion. Even law enforcement officers need a court order.
It's pretty annoying to have to deal with the situation almost every time I go find a spot to shoot & after it's over with I'm just completely unfocused so I just go home to get it off my mind

Lol, Thanks, It was just sarcastic over exaggerated jdm theme but Rachel (Whitedc4) suggested I make patrick the driver :mrgreen:
