The zoom on this phone makes pictures look horrible.

Photoshop

No, seriously: most stuff can be done with GIMP and / or Paint.net.

Sorry about the quality. Sunrise this morning.

Yes, and it's the candid, or spontaneous shots that really bring home the message that the medium plays such a huge part in what we like to capture and express.

For instance - would Scaff have set up a regular camera to get that shot of the Nissan pow-wow? I doubt it - the drama and significance of the moment catches one's eye and the next moment one is fishing for ye olde cellphone camera. And then it's not so much a visual that's recorded - but an actual moment in time. To be savoured over and over.

Your own shot of the rabbit, nice one, too, expresses this.

I've taken tons and tons of shots like that with my cellphone. Which of course is the whole idea behind such a medium, I guess.
And on to the iWatch, probably, which might shoot HDVideo. from which we will extract stunning stills.

Really like some of the shots that machate and kenny have captured, too.

Here's a little cellphone story from a few days ago - I was visiting my ailing mother - who is in her eighties and in the hospital for observation. (She's back home now, and stable again.) I noticed that she would constantly glance at a picture on the far wall - it was a tiny picture that was about 3 inches by 4, that someone had stuck on the wall facing the bed.

Finally, in the middle of our conversation, she asked me, "What is that picture on the wall?" (Her sight is pretty bad now and she can see only real close up.) Without a moment's thought I went up to the picture, took a cell-shot, then went back to her side and gave her the phone-pic, which little screen she held up to her face in wonder.
Her eyes lit up and she cracked a huge smile as she stared at it for a long while.
She gave me back the phone, eventually, saying: "I always wondered what that picture was. Now I know." And the contentment in her voice was priceless to me. Such is the value of a good cellphone, tapped.

In case you were wondering what the picture was, it was Christ praying in the Garden of Gethsamane.

The contract on my iPhone 3GS is done, and the company is now offering me the iPhone5. I can't wait to explore the photon-catching.

Keep snapping, guys!


Cheers,
Harry.

That panorama shot is beautiful. I really need to visit a mountain area sometime soon. The one thing I miss about New York was my view of the mountains.

Those colors are awesome.

Not quite what you may be looking for. But this is my current lock screen wallpaper, using a photo I took.

Here is another I considered using:

So I was at a farm with my sister. Ended up getting this one. I'm tired and my eyes aren't be so cooperative, but I feel like I did a decent job with the saturation and contrast changes.

Here's the original for comparison: Clicky

I could recognize my hometown's taxis anywhere, even at thumbnail size.

God, I miss going there. Hope you enjoyed it.

I've got an Xperia Z, which can take some decent low-light shots when set to manual, ISO100, plus 2 EV and HDR.

All shots in the link are straight from the phone. Will definitely get whichever Xperia Z model is newest when my contract ends next year.

Loved the place. Stopped just behind the Municipal Park, within easy walk of the old town. Great food and really nice people.
