I cringe every time he says he has a lot of poorly focused and poorly framed photos...and there they are beautiful...there is certainly something we should not overlook, and that is the sense he has of the optics of the beauty of each place he visits.
You can have just a crappy phone and the photos will look good man.
Phones do a good job of taking photos these days, they're more cameras than phones I guess. I use both though, my camera and phone and tend to point and click the button hoping I did it right. Someday I'll learn some more about it but I don't think I'll ever take it all that seriously, there's more important things to think about.
Maybe at another time in your life it can become a more serious hobby, who knows?
Well, there's not a lot of it left, few years in front than are already behind, so I'd better hurry I up suppose.
Goodness gracious, we have enough left!!!!!!
