Now I fair few people on here enjoy photography, any of you go out for the fun of just taking photos? I wanna be able to but have no imagination. lol.

thanx guys. I feel I should move away from snaps of my car, but figured I'd spent time waxing and polishing, it would be criminal not to take snaps

Nice shots dude, Have you tried any of the motorway bridge style shots? I gave it a try the other night and quite impressed with the outcome

I like the interior shot, nicely lit up. As for getting some different type of shots just take your camera anywhere, see what you get like i did to manchester.
Also try some sports stuff, thats challenging as its more unpredictable than setting something up like a car.
Landscape
Urban Exploration
Portrait
etc

I'd quite like to go Urban Exploring, dark alleys etc. tbh, I should actually try some day time shots. Was thinking about going down to Poole Harbour tonight.
I just feel intimidated having my camera out at night alone.

Urban Exploration is good stuff, find an abandoned mental hospital and your onto a winner!
Check out 28dayslater.co.uk if your into that stuff.
Also thanks mate

already got that in my favourites, and searched for areas explored in Bournemouth and area. Doesn't seem to be any 
As for the whole Poole harbour shots, water & reflections at night are cool, so its slightly different 
look at http://www.forsakenplaces.com/ if ya like that kinda stuff. not updated any more but still sweet.

if you go urban eploring do you take a tripod? if not how do you go about getting your pictures to show up as i imagine it would be dark and youd need a slower shutter speed or are there other ways of getting pictures at night without a slow shutter speed
