The 2nd pic with the building that looks like it is about to topple over is that an effect of stitching multiple pics together?

EDIT: The crane is straight so maybe the building is about to fall over.

So that's what they call architecture these days. Give me the old imperial style buildings over that anyday.

Biggvl is right you should do this for a living.

I've got a pic from the top of the hill at my place that I stitched together to make a panorama and the combined pic seems to exacerbate the curvature of the Earth. It looks like the planet is all wonky.

I think making money from photography is like trying to make money by being in a band or an artist. Unless you can find a contract its not feasible to make much if anything from it.

I know a few people that tried to take it to professional level but dropped it back to a hobby or a side thing for extra cash.

the force is strong in this one.
yeah. you either have a contract. or its a hobby and you make dollars on the side. my friend does this.
you've got to succumb to some pretty dodgy locations to get these pics too. last nights was no different. very dodgy down there.
while i was waiting for a mate (lol) there was a guy on a skateboard scouting cars looking for shit to pinch, he saw me and fucked off pretty quick. theres a guy living down there in his early noughties corolla. and theres a tonne of backpackers down there as well. its a nice area ironically. oh and there was a dude on a sax going mental about 7pm when i left. i thought it was canned music but turned out to be a real deal.
