sounds (http://freedownloads.last.fm/download/253034219/whatever.mp3). Maybe it'll work if you click Open or you can right-click save as and open it some other way. I promise it won't be worth your effort.

Instead of that usual year end review shit, I'm giving you a pile of rejects-and-not-enough-material-for-a-thread stuff. So no recounting where I've been or any of that stuff. And, sure, it's early to be giving up on this year, but nothing says might as well sluff a few photos together and post-em like having a couple of finals to study for.

Here's the rejects and piles that didn't quite fill out a photo thread. There was a reflections on Georgestown concept that got nixed (you'll see what I mean). This is bound to be a little less well thought out and of suspect quality in places. Hopefully there's a photo or two that made it worth your while. I've got a few ideas for photo threads brewing in my mind for next year. I just need to find the motivation, the lighting, the shiny objects, and how to actually put it together.

Although I don't tend to thank people for viewing or comments specifically by responding I do appreciate the comments (good and bad, places to go.) And I appreciate the time people take to view. While I never did a 50-shot camera barf thread of the Rennie's Mill area as Architype suggested, there's a couple of the mansions mixed in here.

If you missed anything, here's the other suspects.

I know that I hate HIMS because he's Free...

...or maybe it just stems from the jealousy and bitterness I feel towards his wicked, wicked skills with the cameramajigathing--as evidenced in this thread, among others.

Or perhaps it's because of his Schnitzel.

Eye-popping set of shots man. Impeccable layout and presentation, too.

I smelled toast yesterday while running through an encampment of homeless people under a highway, but that was possibly crack. Not stereotyping, really; just didn't notice any toasters--or outlets--anywhere in the vicinity. So I choose that option.

I'd gladly compliment this great set of pics, but I sreiously can't stand the photographer (hate is such a harsh word). And on a sad note, I believe I may have lost my sense of smell.

Thanks.

And thanks for the kind comments and voting. Who would have thought so many forumers would smell toast looking at a computer screen?
