Smartphone Photography

in smartphotography •  6 years ago 

Did you ever think how technology affects our lives? It's not impossible to live without it but it's hard.

Many years ago I was dependent on my cell phone in my private life and business.

When we moved to Canada there was no need for the cell phone anymore. I didn't have anybody to call. I'd stay in touch with my family and friends on Skype.

Computer became my main tool and that's how I discovered YouTube, Steemit, and Cryptocurrencies.

When I start posting on steemit I use photos from my old photo albums which were taken with my old Sony camera. The photos were not bad but carrying a camera with me was very inconvenient and even annoying.

Then I bought a smartphone Samsung Galaxy Note8 and a new era started. It changed my life.

Not at first, but step by step.

Now it's my main tool for everyday tasks and I barely use my computer.

Well except for steemit. I still do posting, commenting, and voting on my computer.

Keyboard is still more convenient for typing.

I don't even remember when I last time use a flower photography for the thumbnail photo.

This guy must be a real art fan. He put this sculpture in his front yard.

Looks like we have some real softwood here.

Or woodpeckers with real hard beaks.

Nature is the best decorator.

Edmonton downtown.

In todays post I tried to show you how useful is a smartphone camera.

Invest in a good smartphone because it will save you a lot of money at the end of the day.

Hang on, my friends, the weekend is almost here.

Skype is also a tool that is used by me long time ago , technology develops so fast ,now we have wechat , qq , steemit and many other ways to communicate , so keeping up with the development of the society is really important for us . thanks for your sharing this post .

I have become so reliant on my phone. I do everything on it from pay bills, email, Steemit and so much more. The funny thing is I rarely talk on my phone. It is texting or email or Steemit for communication. Recently I have started taking more pictures with my phone. After reading your blog for a while and showing your pictures to my students I have realized that everything around me is a potential post or image that someone may want to see or hear about. More and more of my posts are uploaded containing my own images and I am really enjoying the results. Today was actually the first time I posted in the smartphonephotography tag. So many nice images in your post today. I enjoy seeing the downtown landscape and the reflection on the lake is really quite nice but I think my favourite is the shot of the train tracks. I like the way the tracks get smaller as they get further away and you wonder just where they might lead.

I just don't understand why they're made of glass.

Well everything takes time and yes as for Steemit users mainly Smartphone has become a more than need of course ;)

Really liked the images of yours especially the 1st image of the flowers and the sculpture was kinda unique I must say .

The Park looks great as well, liked the reflection of the sky in the water awesome shot that is.

The image you take with the Samsung Galaxy Note8 smartphone is quite clear and very nice.
If I think the pictures you show in this post are very professional.
It shows that you are a photographer.
I congratulate you and your smartphone.

Hello friend, you have great sensitivity with your art, thank you for sharing

howdy there today @oldtimer! wonderful photos as usual. I had no idea you are now just using your cellphone, I figured you had some fancy camera!

Funny neighbour. Back in the days neighbours were competing with cars. Buy hey why not with art ;)

Good afternoon friend, very beautiful pictures of such radiant flowers, really that nature is beautiful and very beautiful.

Phone is fun ... I use this sometimes a lot too :)

we have adapted so much to technology that we can not live without it, good shot the images are fantastic @oldtimer

De verdad que vamos avanzando según va la tecnológia es increible como cada vez nos volvemos más dependiente de ella, gracias a tu cámara Sony podemos disfrutar de esas hermosas fotografias, las más que me gustarón fuerón la de la escultura en el patio es maravillosa, la de la refineria y la del centro de Edmonton espectaculares @oldtimer

You always post about nice photos @oldtimer and it is fun to look at them, you give us the beauty of Canada. I also have bought a smartphone for my photo needs , it also captures video and does a lot of things so we are just fortunate to use these technologies to help us especially for my situation in life. Best regards :)

Your smartphone is quite versatile... or maybe its you... ha ha definitely you!
