These are some of many photographs I have taken that are in my hometown. Not that old though my style of photography is random, usually flat or sometimes abstract.
Sorry for not posting in months tho... been busy primarily focused on college and work. And sleep lol

Here they are. I hope you all enjoy Smile

[Image: JHaHEkF.jpg]This was from September 2017, On top of Halton Castle which is a really fascinating place, the castle is around 900+ years old, pretty demolished but played a part in the English Civil War. ( a lot of soldiers died there and it is a little spooky, but an amazing place to chill out. Tongue )]


[Image: YaYlcae.jpg] Another photo from the castle area. This is scoping the Silver Jubilee bridge for the Queen, tbh it is pretty bad but the view is pleasing.


[Image: cF73F6k.jpg]One of my favourites. I took this on another hill in my hometown that overlooks the industrial area, as my town was built on an industrial port ( Fact about my area: "Statue of Liberty, New York Representing the Hometown sandstone used to build the Docks in New York Harbour. The sandstone has been used on many famous buildings including Liverpools Anglican Cathedral." )

Thank you for your kind words, and I want people to like my output more because there is so much beauty in the world sometimes the eye cannot see, and to snap a frame of it is pretty pleasing. <3

I have around 60 posts on my Instagram page and I like to see people enjoy browsing them Smile It's a fun hobby to be honest.

If you're talking about the third one, it is a slight bit off, I pretty much change everything on the photos I take using Light room, however not too much as it ruins the purpose of the photo. I have an odd style of photography Smile

The compositions are pretty boring. Looks like standard pics one would post on social media. Flowers, foliage with sun behind, hands. It's all pretty basic shoots that amateur photographers start with until they "leave" their area in search of more unique compositions, take their time setting up shots, waiting for the right moment, or time of day, or the position of the sun to get the right shadows and highlights. Also the "instagram filter" look, washed out color grading is overused these days.

The only image that caught my attention was the hand, due to its focus on the palm, leading to the the sunset.
