I've been doing a lot of photography over the last few years, but haven't been sharing any of it anywhere. I'm now posting a few of my best shots on Flickr every weekend-ish. Here's a few:
My favorte: I like the chairs, although something I can't discern is distracting near the front of the car.
I have been rather inactivate the last few weeks due to school and stuff. However, as I was looking on the internet today, I came across a way of creating 3D pictures without any special equipment. Here ya go! To see the 3D image:
1) Cross your eyes until both images merge into a single image. (It should look like there are three pictures in a row)
2) Let your eyes focus on that center image without uncrossing your eyes.
3) Enjoy!
4) Look away to get your eyes back to normal.
3D Picture by Rivvm m, on Flickr
That's a nice picture you got there Rivvm, though I can't seem to get the 3D effect to work. 
Perhaps others are having better luck?
I can see it. In the mid-1990s, stereograms were all the rage, thanks to the technology of such images to be hidden by computers within abstract geometry becoming available. This is the effect one has from using Viewmasters. My wife is especially adept at seeing 3D images in CGI art and this type of image. There was even a Seinfeld episode where Elaine and her boss were trying to see the "hidden images" in an abstract design.
I tried it. Nearly broke my eyes. Therefore, it didn't really work.
If it doesn't work, that is almost more normal than it actually working. 
Even for myself (I am fairly good at this kind of thing) it took a few minutes before I was able to see it. Thanks for trying at least!
EDIT: One thing that might help with seeing it is to make the picture smaller. For example, a smart phone screen is a great size for this.
One way to help is to put your hand in the middle of the picture, perpendicular to the screen. Put your face right up to it, with your nose on your hand, and look at each image with one eye. It may help. The distance between the two images may have to be adjusted. If that doesn't work, take two paper towel rolls and cover the same area of each picture with them. Then look through the tubes.
These take a lot of practice to view.
My photography is pretty mediocre at best, so I've kinda been hesitant to share any of it here. I'm spending the next couple weeks on the Hawaiian island of Kauai though, so I figured I might as well share some pictures from the past few days. I'm really quite a novice as you can probably tell. Advice and tips are welcome 
I think you may be being two hard on yourself, they look pretty good to me.
I do think that the composition would have been improved if you had aimed the camera a little bit to the right for the first 3, a little left for the 4th, and a little bit down and to the left for the last one, but that's just my opinion.
They all look good, but the third is beautiful.
The second one is the best you've shown so far. Do you have a circular polarizing filter? If not I would suggest getting one. Using one will give you much richer colors, especially blues, straight out of camera. I don't shoot landscape photography without one.
Brickcrazy, for a beginner, tht's not bad at all.
Thanks guys

For some reason I bought one a while back for a few of my prime lenses but not the kit lens I've been using. I'll have to add that to the list of stuff I need. Maybe I can find one at one of the local camera shops (with ridiculously inflated prices no doubt, like everything else out here...)

Not exactly great framing, but I got a pretty neat picture of a sun dog the other day.
So, a couple of weeks ago my AP Photography class submitted our final portfolio of our best photos! In this portfolio was the "Quality" section, which contained,well, the BEST of the best photos! Here are mine, hope you like 'em:
"ONLY a bird"
"FACEplant"
"Vegas and Mountains"
"The Insurance Liability" (God, this picture does NOT compress well)
"trackback"
