This was taken with the same lens as all the others were. Just slightly different settings..

Fantastic shot!!! could I get a copy in sayyyyyyy 1680X1050?

(Looking for a new wallpaper.)

You could crop it to fit if you like.... But I really would like it for wallpaper. (Nice contrast with Icons.)

I'm an odd ball. Nam. hahaha
Yeah, I walk out of the office at 5 and it's dark here

With soo many people with the same last names, first names really start to repeat a lot.

It's hard to use the strip as a background.. Too dark ambient light, too bright neon lights.

One of my oldest/best friend's name was Eric Kim.. he moved away a long time ago. I never bothered to try to search for him thinking I'd find umteen thousand of them... Are you him?

I am Stan. Started in July of last year. Didn't really get serious until recently :read: Ran out of money to mod Z, shooting photos is free, less lens.

Using XTi. 50mm 1.8f and 28-135 3.5-5.6f IS lens. Have the kit lens for non purpose shooting.

I found me not using glasses while shooting ruins my MF shots. Link

I will work on the wallpaper later on for you..

All of those shots were hand held (even the night shot)

I used the Nikon 70-300VR on a D70s
