Day 221

The rain has stopped at long last, so Iain and I went on a photo walk round the local botanical gardens this afternoon.

Iain had the Canon, and I used the iPhone. Although Iain's not done much photography in the last twenty-five years, he used to be a keen photographer when he was a teenager, back in the days of black and white film. I'm gently trying to get him to catch 'the bug' again, because I think it would be a cool activity to do together. My long-term plan is to buy a higher-spec Canon, but keep the entry-level one. That way we can both use a dSLR all the time, and alternate days that we use the top-end one.

As you can probably tell, I edited these iPhone shots in Lightroom.

  2. All three are wonderful. I am drawn to the daisies, since your treatment makes these happy flowers look dangerous and hence the mystery that pulles me into the photo.
