Pretty good for a smartphone. This could be a stock photo to use as an illustration in corporate presentations about business strategy. Might be worth going back for optimal settings. Hope grandma is doing well, just beyond Panic.

into the light

Exposure fits for a midsummer day -- brightness makes me feel like squinting just like being there. The red structure with white semicircle give an oriental feel to the destination.

Hummingbird Silhouette2

Very clean shot, essence of the bird without the distraction of color or feeder. Translucent wing feathers add the necessary extra interest. I wonder how it would have done in the free study. Thanks for posting.

A little help crossing the street

Interesting capture of detail in something frequently looked at without really being seen. Calling attention to such parts of life is a good reason to make images. I never realized that the geometric shapes forming these figures are not always uniform dots. The mild distortion from shooting with the camera lower than the subject suggests a space ailien portrait. Including the last bit of heel in the lower corner might have been a minor improvement, but noticing the vibrance of transmitted instead of reflected light and acting on the impulse to capture is a photographic habit worthy of nurturing.

Clearly from above, and happy graphic combination of diagonal lines and colorful geometric umbrellas.

There are two sides to every story (shot from the top of cliffs)

This is a striking image of sky and water. The strongest elements are higher than the camera. If this had included the sweep of the cliff abruptly dropping down to the shore, it could have conveyed "From Above" a lot more than this framing.

Like an undersea creature. Enjoyable color combination and good detail.

Public places sometimes make a great setting for spontaneous play, even for adults. Great capture of such a moment.

California Poppies

Poppies are so bright that they usually show up in sharp images. The softer focus (with good detail preservation) and lower key background really make this a lovely variation.
