Yours doesnt look to bad either Kenan.
I keep meaning to bring a camera on my commute; although its mainly urban (its all urban), I still get some good veiws from Highgate over the City, Horseguards Parade and the London Eye as well as Parliament square on the way home.
Bit dark both ways at the moment."If you always do what you've always done, you'll always get what you've always got."

Here's a streetview shot of my commute:DesWeller wrote:It's dark when I get to work and dark when I leave.
Here it is photoshopped to simulate how it looks currently:

To be fair, when I ride it there is usually more traffic and it's travelling a fair bit slower. Less spectators too.0 -
Small section of my commute:
Not much to see, not even the ground.

Getting lighter on the commute now, can actually see some of the surroundings.
OK, so it wasn't the most direct route, but it only added about 5 miles...0 -
Some of mine from the other day (shamelessly used from another thread)ROAD < Scott Foil HMX Di2, Volagi Liscio Di2, Jamis Renegade Elite Di2, Cube Reaction Race > ROUGH0 -
MRS, it was your photos on the other thread that made me decide to take some!
But in order not to be considered boasting, better hide them here.

Looks like a lovely part of the world, BG!
Hoping for a fab morning tomorrow - sun burning off the mist. Wish I knew what I was doing with a cameraROAD < Scott Foil HMX Di2, Volagi Liscio Di2, Jamis Renegade Elite Di2, Cube Reaction Race > ROUGH0 -
Another nice sunset.
There's thin ice on the fjord, and boats have left tracks in it.0 -
Continuing the ice theme:
26cm thick now, and starting to get pressure ridges at the edges.0 -

Very nice, going for the arty and atmospheric approach. Changing the game compared to a phone camera.
I like the one with the moon, did you have to zoom in to make the moon appear so large? And is it through a filter?0 -

Thanks. I experiment quite a lot - especially because there's so much beautiful stuff to photograph. They're all from my commute.
The moon one is slightly zoomed but most of the apparent size of the moon is atmospheric (I guess) - its been looking very big low in the sky. Not really any filter - a bit of blurring around the edge using Snapseed on the iPad - it's also heavily cropped.

I dont usually stop on the commute but seeing as I was already going snails pace, thought i'd try and capture the colours from the setting sun.

Thought I'd add the view from the "top" of my commute to this list. One of the better evenings for the view over portsmouth. Apologises for the poor panorama.
And yes, that's a "Beware of Cyclists" sign in the right hand side.
Intent on Cycling Commuting on a budget, but keep on breaking/crashing/finding nice stuff to buy.

Lovely picture - I will be wending my way around the Essex countryside early Sat morning - Chigwell to Thaxted and back for my early weekend runout; I hope it looks half as good as that0 -
2º? Not sure why you're wanting to point out how unseasonably warm it is...
