I believe I've shared this one before, but it's of the Angel Tree in Charleston, SC. Took it with my Gnex since I wanted to use Photosphere.

You've mentioned it a few times.

EarlyMon: Best in the world.
All of these pictures are causing me to feel very envious...that I lack the hardware to produce such beautiful images.

Nine out of ten of my pics are made with my Sammy GS3.
Don't sell yourself short my friend.
It's all about the feeling and the moment.
Many, many years ago a pro retired and left suitcases of Hasselblad equipment up for sale at the camera store where my buddy worked.
We got to talking and he challenged us to a showdown, the upcoming photography contest. My buddy took after him with a Mamiya RB-67 and me with a twin lens Rollei - we're talking top notch and major bucks, and we had our own darkrooms.
He mopped the floor with us using a Kodak Instamatic and drug store development for his prints.
I hope you find this video as moving as I do -
That was made with a kid's toy - the Fisher Price PXL 2000 - 120

I've always said that a bad picture is better than no picture. Some of my bad pictures are my favorites.
My dad was a photographer and hated it when we kids "wasted film", yet he would develop and print them all. As we got older we could use his darkroom, that's where the fun was.
I went on assignments with him sometimes, had a blast and a lot of good memories. He took some stunning shots but every now and again it was his "bad" shots that I liked better.
Shoot, shoot and shoot some more. Bad be damned, you will be glad you have something because a bad picture is better than no picture

Coffee is an important part of my life. While staying in Warsaw, I frequented a cafe around the corner. Best damn coffee I have ever had. Worst service I've ever had.
This photo represents the perfection of life at that time, when it was simple and free. I look at this photo and I remember what it was like to not have a care in the world.

I love trains and I love vintage photos of them.
I took this one in Albuquerque on a hot day in the desert - and I wanted to capture the sense of the bleak light and searing heat in the lines extending to the horizon.

hardware? the hardware in my $20 Samsung Flip (i still have the phone in a drawer somewhere) was basically a 1/3 Megapixel and no flash. the fact Daisy came out the way she did was a miracle.
EarlyMon, saw that one you posted over in the (One?) thread discussing HDR. I admired it there too (though I think it was in color?)
Ah yes - here is the same image shot plain, then again with HDR (high dynamic range by averaging 3 pictures). The shot above, exactly what I was going for as soon as I looked down the platform, is the HDR shot, colorized.

I like the above shot with the muted colors best as it has more of an artistic flair to it. But that's just me.

Ahhh!
Don't you just love the smell of Yankies inn the early hours of the morning?

Thanks!
That's the HDR shot, colorized - or color filtered, whichever you prefer.
It's been Ted Turner-ized.
That's the kind of shot I like in good ol' fashion black and white.

Not me, I think it loses some of the heat that way, but I reduced it to black and white for ya so here you go -

I know it's not at all what you were trying to capture but of the three shots I honestly like the b/w best.
It's actually the opposite of what you were after; cold, stark steel but it really works for me.
That's what's so great about a picture (or anything), no two see it the same way.
