hello
being very new too i suggest that urban fragments creates a welcome thread where newbies introduce themselves like in the group flickr central. so you won't have a threat for each one of us ;)

nice to be here.

Hello!

I can't really say where I'm from. I'm kind of nomadic in a way.
Here it is in chronological order:
Laguna, Philippines: Lived half my life here
San Diego, USA
Detroit, USA
Los Angeles, USA
Orlando, USA
Detroit, USA: Have family here, so stick around here for a while.

Next prospective move is NYC or Toronto
Why? I don't know... Just cause. Can't stay still in one place longer than 2 and a half years.

Anyway. I love MUSIC, SOUND, and PHOTOGRAPHY.
Music and sound seems redundant: let me explain briefly

Music from an writer's perspective
Sound from a recording engineer / designer / scientist perspective (my current career field)
and Photography from a lover's perspective

I love to talk about myself. I like when people talk about themselves.
I'm lighthearted, comical, and serious when appropriate.

I enjoy Flickr. (Turning into an addict)

AND thanks for welcoming us to this group. BYE! =P

Gewitter says:

Wow! I am one of the new ones here. I love taking photos, but I am not a professional photographer. I love taking photos in a urban context, so I am glad I found a nice place for them. At the moment I work and try to live (when I have free time) in Germany.

I'm very new to Flickr, and digital photography generally.
Figured I'd post some of my photos here, try and get a little feedback if I can.
I live in Aberdeen, Scotland. I'm a first-year university student and I shoot in my spare time.
Nice to be here.

Hi all newbs! I am also new to flickr and have always enjoyed photography. Just bought my first dslr, canon rebel xti, and have been snapping pictures every chance I get. Im originally from NY but have been living in fort collins colorado for the past 3 years. I figured this was a good place to get advice and inspiration so feel free to look at my pictures and critique! Once my camera battery is charged I plan on uploading a bunch of urban fragments related pictures =-)
thanks!

had flickr for a while but never really explored it, just thought it was an offshoot of yahoo's photo storage system. now that i've been exploring it... i've seen it's more than just that. revamped my photos and decided to 'store' the photos from my collection which i like best. photos are from my travels in Indonesia, Philippines and UAE. mostly street scenes and candid shots of places... (my own phraseology! hehehe)

Hello from Portland, Oregon. I am very new to Flickr and to photography. I have always taken pictures but they weren't really photography, just snapshots. I am reading and shooting to learn but I think I have learned more on here already than I have in all of my reading. The biggest shock to me so far has been the sheer numbers of incredible photographers that contribute to this site. Keep'em coming folks and have fun, I know I am....

guajava  Pro User  says:

David here, in Toronto, my home for now. British background though I hardly know the place. Born in Germany, grew up in Africa and Asia, lived and worked in the Mideast, Asia and N. America.
I've been taking snaps on and off forever, but much more on than off since joining Flickr in Sept 07. Learned a lot in that time, looking at other people's photos and trying to think of things to say about them.
Most of my own snaps being what you might call fragments of the imagination, and Toronto being one never-ending patchwork of urban fragments, I suppose this group is the right place for me. At any rate, it's been fun reading through the self-introductions here. Hello to everyone!

eastsidegiggler  Pro User  says:

Hello everyone!

I am a newbie although I have been posting for a few months now. I have just never formally introduced myself.

Hello!

I grew up in Detroit, Michigan, and work there, and am obsessed with taking pictures of my surroundings. The history of the city is amazing, although sad, but I love it. I am happy to share my photos with you, whether they be shots of buildings or something goofy and totally off the wall -- a very common theme in the D.

Peace!

You all impress me very much. My goal is not to compete with you but to join your ranks...

HI EVERYBODY!

This is Raffaella from Milan...well actually I live in Turin, for work.
I am a designer and I really enjoy taking pictures of stuff!

What is so surprising is that everyone of us have a different point of view, everyone is taking different pictures and observing the world in a different way! you really are, for me, a source of inspiration!!

What you will see from me is my life in the city. A documentary. I think that every corner has a magic behind that has to be discovered.
So, what else can I say.....welcome to Turin, you really enjoy this magic city!

Hola
Soy Axel, de la ciudad de México. I have been interested in architecture and urban sociology since very young. My brother became a professionl architect and architecture photographer, so it is not suprising that my amateur photo activities have leaned towards architecture and urban life.

Besides, I love my city!

pattakins  Pro User  says:

Hello everyone. I'm Patti and I live in So. California. Way back in my younger days, I enjoyed photography so much, I was never without a camera in my hand. Then I grew up, got married, had a family, and forgot all about my friend, the camera. Now, many, many, years later, my wonderful husband has bought me a starter DSLR, and I find myself falling in love with the camera once again. My problem is that this old brain of mine has forgotten so much, that I will once again have to re-learn it. But I am looking forward to it, and have already been having some fun. I've been on flickr for a while now, but just found this group. I think it is going to be one ofmy favoites.

Hey there, I'm Pete and I have just moved to Germany from the uk. I love photography and am new here and to flickr as a whole. Infact I'm pretty new to the whole putting my photos out there for everyone to see thing. I'm hoping to get inspired by being here and am glad that I have found a bunch fo people that also don't want people in their urban shots.

I don't have a great deal of shots to post yet but I will have more and more if I can stop writing in these pesky threads and go out and take some pics

Looking forward to meeting afew of you and maybe getting some contacts and comments on my shots.

Hi everybody!
I joined this group yesterday and I'm rather new to Flickr. I live in Brussels, Belgium (the chocolate, the fries, the beer... you know?) my hometown that digital photography has taught me to see with a fresh eye and a new approach...
I have been using a point and shoot camera up to now but I feel it's about time I upgrade from my Powershot A80 to a DSLR.
I enjoy compiling and blending my pics with some video clips and share them on youtube.
Anyone from Brussels over here? :-))))
