Default First pictures posted!

By fish creek park again.

Fish creek park...

Houses in the dying light of the day.

All of these are from a recent trip I made to Calgary. My friend was a photo-enabler and at sunset, we couldn't resist taking these pictures!

I'm so glad I found DPS, I've been taking pictures for a while and was looking for the right community to join

I really like the second one. It tells so many warm and wonderful stories.

Welcome to DPS and Share Your Shots!

An interesting set of shots and all are well photographed. I especially like the second one with the inclusion of the person and the fact that you've captured additional light showing some detail in her..Excellent composition.

I like the first shot the best, the orange glow of the ball of sun, offset with the silhouette of the power pole looks dramatic to me. Usually I'm busy trying not to have power poles in my shots, but this turned out so well I might try something similar

All three are really pretty images. I think I like number 2 the most.
