A view from my lanai (attached pic #1) and a view of (among other things) my lanai (pic #2). The yellow circle in each pic shows the location from which I took the other pic.  :D

Just 10a.m. and another snap posted!

Dedication, baby, and in capitalist mood - until I look at my own bank numbers.

Two architectural shots from Nicosia, Cyprus. I remain intrigued by the unusual side walls of that building.

The whole building on iPhone Max, the other one with Canon 6D and 70-200/4:

Yes, bank numbers, that would explain the distinctive mocking clown's face i see in the first half of that Rorschach test. Interesting divide then between the haves and have-naughts, or have-nots depending on how much you do have.

Might be natural heat protection.

What made you decide on the iPhone? Did you just need a new phone? Or did you specifically chose it for its camera capabilities?

Souvenirs of 1973.

Also, Mallorcan-modern decoration of the 50s. Bad news travels.

Ive been with iPhones since model 1. Hate to jump ship every time competitors leapfrog each other. A friend gave me an Android while in Cyprus and I hate it. Not because it is inferior (it is a rather old model, so it is, but I am sure the latest generation is just as capable), but because it is different. I hate to spend time relearning something that I see as an appliance, a toaster of a kind. I use it, and devote to it just enough attention to do what I need it to do, and that’s it.

Having said that, I did get the Max for its camera advances. My prior model was an iPhone 7s and there was nothing wrong with it, but knowing this trip was coming, I wanted something more advanced photographically. So far, it’s been a pure pleasure. As I described in my Belgrade post in another thread, I used it for 90% of shots on this trip. Besides, as also mentioned there, it brings me back to my youth, when having 50mm and 28mm lenses was everything one could wish for.

Take, for example, this shot - 2.5 seconds hand-held, at 2000 ISO (iPhone Max):

I get it, the use of the phone that is because I have a Samsung S8+ and have no desire to get an iPhone (I could easily switch though as I have an iPad too).
It's so much more convenient to just use the phone and many times the quality is good enough. The iPhone max and the similar phones with an additional camera (or the Pixel 3) are probably even better.

I too have been using a recent iPhone (8+) this year while travelling, though also a Panasonic GX8 for wider or narrower coverage. The two lanai-centric pics above are from the iPhone, the first with the wider lens (~28mm "equivalent") and the second with the longer one (~56mm equiv.). Raw images in most cases via the ProCamera app.

Attached pic (captured in JPEG due to user error) via iPhone wide lens, from up in the air heading west from Seattle out over the Pacific.

This morning's post-sunrise long lens view from my lanai. GX8, 100–300mm at 120mm (240mm "equiv").

How high the Moon! iPhone, portrait lens.

(Works better as a 4x5, I think (pic #2).)
