This is the fruit.
Please note that the camera is not very good with composition, as the viewfinder was off and the LCD display was useless in the sunlight and I used automatic focus and lighting.
Since the things are way too big even for my connection, I'm posting thumbnails.
A view from stepping outside. The trees are blossoming and soon will gain their leafs.
Note the cars. There is rarely free parking space, a fact that my dad often bitches about.
My error here: the lamppost is in.
Some old apartment buildings from the Soviet era that are being renovated by replacing the old (and usually non-functional) windows and outer walls with more sound-proof, heat-proof ones. And ones with better colour. Of course the colour will quickly fade, but meh.
Should have bent it just a little to the left.
Nothing much here, except a pretty tree. I challenge you to identify it.
Here is an error I recognise: I should have held the camera more upwards. There is little point is photographing the floor.
A shopping square. Just to note, my area is essentially a circle of apartment buildings and this little shopping square is in the middle of it. The idea was from city-planner's I guess. I recall an architectural following that follows such a functional ideal.
You can see the people beside the supermarket. Often, old or/and poor people will sell their eggs, flowers or even salvage here when the market isn't open (which is in the morning of two days a week).
Should have gone closer. The cars are in the way.
A little heaven behind the shops. There are some bird cases here and no squirrels. It's a nice little green heaven, where homeless often like to go at night as the shops still give off some heat and they are partially protected from the wind and rain, as well as some concealment due to the lack of lighting of this area.
The same area from a different perspective. It isn't much of a place of comfort, isn't it?
Between the buildings, there are parking lots and playgrounds with trees. When the apartments were built, allot of trees were planted. Now they bud and bloom.
A yellow flower that was blooming. I again, challenge you to identify it.
Should have made a little distance with the camera. Also, my hands are shown as they hold the branch in the wind. Actually, this isn't a very good picture.
More flowers. Better photo then the last one. Identify it if you can.
I've actually modded this picture a bit, to redeem it from the fact that I photed in opposition to the sun and I didn't give enough time for the camera to adjust.
It's 23:43, and I am a bit tired of waiting for Imageshack to put up my pics, so I'll stop now. I'll post more pictures tomorrow.
Any criticism is welcome, as long as it is constructive and with the consideration that I am a pure amateur.
