Car porn...Oulton Park circuit in Cheshire - classic car weekend trying to perfect panning techniques with limited success. One of my all-time favourite cars, the Lotus Elan.

I agree with @Apple fanboy, this picture looks pretty good to me.

While out and about lately I've purposefully left the DSLR at home (for various reasons) but I've also tried to make an effort to pull out my iPhone if I see something interesting that catches my eye and take a picture. Despite losing some flexibility the quality can be pretty good and it certainly beats not taking a picture at all.

This was taken last summer at Lake McDonald in Glacier National Park with a Nokia Lumia 1020 that I still often take with me when I travel for its very reliable offline GPS (why isn't this a standard feature in all premium flagships?!). The 42MP camera is the reason I bought this phone 4+ years ago.. and while it's not an ideal smartphone camera by 2019 standards, when the stars align and it gets a shot right it's still pretty impressive.

SW Scotland
Corsewall Kelp Beds

Kelp sways around lazily in the ebbing tide close to Corsewall Lighthouse few nights ago (SW Scotland). It was almost hypnotic watching and listening to the Kelp peacefully swishing back and forth in such calm seas. An exposure time of 1 second captured the gentle motion of the Kelp with the tide.

Shot info: Fuji X-T3 with Samyang 12mm f2 NCS lens using Kase Filters 0.9 Neutral Density Soft Graduated filter, 0.6 Neutral Density Medium Graduated Filter and Polariser.

1s / f11 / ISO 160

Oh oh, I went to an Antique Automobile Club of America (AACA) event today at the Baltimore Museum of Industry so you know what that means - a few pictures from me of old cars these next couple of days. You may have noticed I do like cars but hey, I am from Detroit. I think you fine people can handle it. :)

I had that phone, more than one, actually. I loved so much about it. OLED screen with night mode, crazy durable design, and that camera amazed me more than once. It’s a shame Lumia died, and W10M was such a trash heap. I really loved WP 8.1.
