Odd and Ends

A few things from here and there. Stuff from my backyard to San Francisco's Golden Gate Park.
These, in large part, are my attempts (feeble though they may be) at making my photos into a bit of art. I've not an artistic bone in my body, nor an artistic thought in my head, so it's difficult. Any constructive criticism - or even outright laughter - is appreciated.

I'd say you do have an artistic eye my friend... your images are well composed, the light is great, the subjects are interesting... what you seem to lack a little is self-confidence my man... no need to, you're doing great, keep shooting... I enjoyed your gallery
