Thank you, and I love your photos!

Thatā€™s beautiful! And that building you took a picture of, is that a castle? I donā€™t have anything remotely resembling that near by meā€¦ Mostly I see houses, barns, lots of cowsā€¦

Thatā€™s an adorable little palm!

and I call this ā€œthe handā€ even tho it requires you to be a bit creative :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Edit: Going through my pics I noticed the HUGE jump in quality from S5 to S6 :exploding_head:

Itā€™s absolutely amazing the quality of photos that phones can take nowadaysā€¦

Do you go through and delete a lot of photos? I donā€™t have enough photos to fill up the SD card that I usually just let it sit thereā€¦

It definitely looks like a hand, thatā€™s for sureā€¦

Well, I delete all the trash - mediocre stuff from time to time. I have an USB stick dedicated to all my pics and thatā€™s like 10Gb+ of pictures and today I decided to go through all of it to tidy my collection up a bit :slight_smile:
Many pics look fine on a phone display, but once you check them out on the desktop you can notice things out of focus that appeared to be sharp before, or things like a tiny part of a finger that was a bit too close to the lens lol

Iā€™m glad am not the only one seeing that :grin:

Edit: e.g. this looks cool imho but itā€™s out of focus :confused:


and then there are just pics I took cause it was cool to me at some point

(also out of focus ugh)

Auto-focus on phones often focuses on things that I donā€™t want it to.

I like that picture of the kalanchoe growing out of asphalt, surely nature telling us to stop messing with itā€¦ :slight_smile:

As for focusing on a bright object like the sun through the cloudsā€¦ with the bright center and stark contrast, itā€™s always so difficult to take an in-focus photo, since thereā€™s not much to focus on.

I now remember that this was a very cute and calm ant :smile:

I checked back into this thread so much and it didnā€™t show me your reply :open_mouth:
Anyway, one can focus on the clouds so that often works just fine, oftenā€¦

Why thank you @Rilover :blush:

nice man, i donā€™t mean to pry, and u certainly donā€™t have to answer if u donā€™t want to, but may we know its subject? I just like to hear about such things, and i quite respect someone who has expertise in a specific subject (or several). Sadly iā€™m not like that, but Iā€™m a pretty good copy editor and am happy enough with that, lol

I work on ants and spidersā€¦ Everything else is classified but once I start publishing papers I can provide links to them (should be about a year or two).
