Just thought I'd post this as it came out a bit moodier than I anticipated. Cheap camera though...

This was snapped right on my front porch, looking across the street. Now y'all know where I live. Egads! :eek:

I miss snow :(

Oh well, I'll be going back to Cleveland after my finals are over. Maybe I'll have a snow ball fight w/ myself.

Maybe this should be a "post the view outside your front door" thread? That could be interesting...

^^ I know we've had similar threads before, but couldn't turn one up that was fitting. I just thought the pic was a bit too moody to not post..

It would be cool if we could start posting the "Front Porch View" maybe..

Yeah, its a nice pic, especially the yellow sky. Its a great time of year for views and photos in the colder parts of the world!

If it was a front porch view thread I don't know how many people would be willing to surrender their privacy though :p, and they'd probably be a lot of similar pictures.

That's an interesting photo. I always enjoy finding those rare moments where the light and air are interacting in a strange way. I have some similar shots at home, I might post them later tonight.

That's the whole point. Red sky, green fluorescent street lamp.. perfect. :)

Well I know that, but I've never seen a green streetlight before.


Streetlights are really good for photos. They give a spotlight effect, and if you're lucky, something underneath the light may be very well lit, and in an interesting way.

I agree - street lamps always lend an eerie, spy-who-came-in-from-the-cold type of feel. They can be very suggestive like that..
