Fun w/Street Scenes Last Weekend... (Pic Heavy)

[Juneboarder]

Hi, I'm new here. I know my pic sizes are a bit large, and I'd take any input/suggestions on making my pictures more visibly friendly. I took my son out on the town throughout Downtown Encinitas last Saturday. The weather was gorgeous; sunny and about 80 degrees at the beach. Needless to say... we had a GREAT time! :)

1. Fun, isn't it?

Looks like a great place to be in January. I was kept entertained by the contest also, as I was waiting for my daughter to take her fiance to the Civil Rights Museum. I opted out, since I have already been there enough, and walked around downtown instead. I'm a real true amateur, so my advice would be just to keep taking pictures, and you will become increasingly aware of what is/isn't a good subject. You don't need to worry that much about composition because you can always crop them later.

I did pm you and answer on the comment section about reducing the size.

2. crap, they still show RHPS at the Paloma?

used to go see it there in the 70's... can't tell you how many times I got wasted there.

3. Ha! Yeah... still showin' RHPS @ La Paloma

They've had that Friday night venue since I moved to the area in 1995. Are you still local or did you move away? Did you go to San Dieguito?
