My Kind of Landscape » - urban landscape photography

…and here ends the Toowoomba collection! I haven’t been taking a whole lot of photos lately, but don’t worry… I made up for that this morning, so there’s definitely no immediate end to the hundreds of images you’ll find here. Incidentally – I’ve clocked up more than 500 ‘newbies’ – and considering it is September, goodness only knows how many I will have by the end of the year (especially bearing in mind I had no computer / took very few in Jan-Feb-Mar). I thought last year was huge… I may be in trouble at the end of 2014. Don’t care, they make me happy… and I have lots of hard drive space! You gotta do what your heart wants to do, right?!

Photo number 2 (or the one that should be titled #3, whichever way you want to look at it!) is the Toowoomba location I’ve wanted to take a photo of for AGES. It mightn’t seem like anything special to you, but once I have an image in my head it will stick there (and give me a not so gentle nudge every now and then to remind me) until I’ve actually taken it. Just in case you were wondering what happens if I don’t take a photo before the place changes… I will then think of that photo I wanted to take every single time I drive/walk/go past and every single time I drive/walk/go past I will mentally kick myself for not making the effort… the first time. Trust me, there’s a few of those, and it’s a mighty vicious cycle. The whole regret thing (and the process of avoiding it!) certainly makes me do some strange things.

Here I was thinking that I was getting towards the tail end of my Toowoomba collection… nope! Still a few more to go. Firstly, let me draw your attention to the shadow across the red door on this first photo, and how it cuts out at the top – how cool is that?! There’s a reflection coming from a window above the door (you can see it on the brick and the bin) that’s adding in some extra light and removing the shadow… I love it.
