This will consist of random stuff. Now that I have a high-res camera on my phone and have signed up for Dropbox, it's now much easier for me to capture things and having them readily available on my computer.

I like Photoshop's filters for making otherwise mundane shots into something more stylized, but I won't be doing this for everything. I normally go for sweeping natural landscapes and the like, but I want to try my hand at more abstract compositions.

I'm going to start playing around.

Enjoy.

Thanks, mm. The main source of light here is sunlight reflected off of glass in what would otherwise have been a rather shady corner.
