Christmas: Ornament 2

Another cell phone picture. Again, I'm quite pleased with the crispness and DOF on this one. I loved how shiny and sparkly this ornament was!

Christmas: Poinsettia

Ho ho ho! Time to get in the spirit of the season and enjoy some holiday themed pictures!

I was really quite impressed with how well this came out - because it's a cell phone picture! This is a very pretty Poinsettia. I contemplated stealing it.

SAIT building

I was a little early getting to a meeting-type-thing at SAIT in Calgary, so I thought I would stretch my legs a bit and get some air before heading inside for the next several hours. I found this really neat building, and grabbed a quick picture of it. I think it's fun, but it doesn't annoy me by wasting precious space on the ground.

Sunset on the go

This photo was taken through a dirty bus window (thus the spots). This is the result of burying you good camera at the bottom of your bag! 

This photo was a guinea pig for using the Aviary app on my phone to edit a picture. Adjusting contrast,  brightness, at saturation were incredibly simple. For quick edits, I'm already in love.

Pros: surprisingly sharp - I was expecting blurry since we were charging down the highway at 110+ km/hr

Cons: spots spots spots. Tilted horizon - or maybe that's just hills that make it look that way, but still. a little bit ick.

Is this a museum?

Not the types of objects you see every day... a real payphone and TWO paper phone books!

I took this picture with my cell phone. It's not a great shot and I was trying to avoid being too obvious to all the people milling around! But I took it anyway and I'm posting it because it's part of my idea to look in all places for photo opportunities. From straight on I think this might be a really neat image, with that brilliantly yellow wall. (Yes, Butterdome.)
