This picture wasn’t taken with my Floppy Disk camera. I used the phone for this one. It illustrates quite well how we’ve come on in the world of photography. The picture is brighter, sharper and technically much better. But when I look at it closely I get the impression that there’s been some image trickery going on. the brightness of the sky seems go up and down a bit around the trees and the horizon. It brings home to me that the primary job of a phone camera is to make pictures that look good on the phone. But I think that sometimes the software tries a bit too hard.
