Photos Archives

Photos for photo’s sake. Sometimes I just want to post a photo without tying it back to some meaningful context.

What my smartphone sees

So I got this new camera (that also happens to make and receive calls). And like any camera that’s always with me, I use it to take the occasional photo. The quality is not great, but it’s better than my first foray into cellphone photography.
