all selfies btw.^^
March 13th, 2011
@sarethephotos great shots. I like the 2nd "fashion-ish" one.

@marshy15 HEHEHE great shots Nathan! The on one the vehicle (I say vehicle because I have no idea what type of car it is) looks seriously fun! I would have probably tried to jump and get a "action shot" and broke a few bones in the proses, or fall through the roof... or at the very least bruise the ego. HA! Feeling on top of the world in that shot, I assume? ;)
March 13th, 2011
@marshy15 "the on one" hahaha, time for coffee, yes?
March 13th, 2011
I had more b&w than i realised :)















March 13th, 2011

@zabcoloma nice one Zab! I have to ask: what's with the setup? bating in the livingroom???
March 13th, 2011






March 13th, 2011
@marinda
thanks :D
it was not a setup my nephew is really taking his bath at the living room. this is around 8 in the morning and the sun is shining thru the windows and it caught my attention and since he is already there i got my UWA lens and shoot away.
