My First Urban Shots...

[xtravaluemeal1]

So I just bought myself a camera b/c I was tired of taking ho-hum shots with a point and shoot. I asked a friend to take me around and show me a few things...and this was a result of that night. What do you guys think? Any good? Or pretty average? Some ideas on how to make them better are welcome.

The first one's my favourite, keep up the good work!

lovely shots, but in no 1, either chicago leans, or your horizon is a little off

gospastic: I took #1 from the roof of my building. I have a great unobstructed view of the highway and the skyline from my roof! I lucked out!
catsith: thanks..you're right..chicago leans..haha...I will try to fix that tonight!

well I guess thats because front headlights are more brighter than the tail red lights, so one side of the highway (headlights facing you) looks more busy.
