SEPTA Does The Driving

Last Thursday, Susan and I attended a reception for the "All That Jazz" art exhibit outside City Commissioner Rue Landau's office in Philadelphia City Hall. They had hung eight of my photographs of Philadelphia musicians. She won't drive in the city anymore, so we took the train, which I had only done once previously. When I drove (not allowed anymore), it took less time to drive than to take the train because it took quite a while to get to the station, and where I was going could be anywhere in the city.

Travelling light, I took a few pictures with my Nikon S9500 (#1-2) before the battery went dead. Then I switched to my new Google Pixel 10 Pro (#3-7 shot through the window) using the Google camera app with the default settings. They all went through Photoshop to straighten the images and make other minor corrections.

Great work Andrew, it's amazing what you can achieve with a simple mobile phone these days. I am finding that I am shooting more with my iPhone as ever, due to certain creative opportunities it provides but mostly because I always have it with me.

The main thing is to keep exploring and enjoying what you're doing, not matter what camera you have available.

Congratulations on having 8 of your photographs on display! Also, nice work on capturing Philly, Andrew! The weather has been just right in PA too; so great time for it to happen!

Austin, Texas Blue Hour

Was down in Austin for a bit on a work trip. I've always heard how beautiful the skyline is from the river.

Was a little let down by the clouds, but what can I do!

Two from Tenerife

My two favourite images from my recent night time adventure in Tenerife. Foregrounds and skies were shot separately and blended in PS.

Any interest in this group?

Hi all, I was looking for such a group but see that although there are many members there hasn’t been a single post. Is there interest out there in getting this group going?
