My SO and I had some free time this past Sunday around 6pm and I decided to take some pics. Nothing special, but these are all pictures taken while walking so I know most people don't get to see it unless they've taken the time to walk a little of downtown.

I'm no professional, but I did use an effect on these pictures. Just wanted to play with the images to see how they would come out. Feel free to use any. They are low resolution because the originals were originally 3000x2000. The sun was going down, so the last few came out a little dark.

Constructive feedback is welcomed. Hope you guys like.















You can really see the townhomes coming up fast now that BBVA Compass Stadium is wrapping up.

Cool pics - love the effect that you used. Will definitely be adding these to a collection of my favorite Houston pics.

They look like scenes from the History Channel series, "Life After People."

Houston has really been slacking on cutting medians and sidewalk areas lately. Great shots though. Feels very "Greenwood King Realty" with the fuzzy, enhanced color.

haha Funny you mention that. That's exactly what I'm trying to accomplish. Trying to step up the real estate picture process, but it takes practice. But it helps when listing properties.

Thanks guys. Makes me want to take some more. It's actually the first time we go out and take the tripod into urban territory to take pics.

It's actually pretty relaxing to go out there and find the right shot.
