Smartphonephotography Saturday - Beautiful Belle Isle (no editing)

in #photography7 years ago

Belle Isle is beyond gorgeous, a beautiful park located on an island in Detroit, Michigan. It is also the largest city-owned island park in the United States.
According to locals it used to be a dangerous and crime ridden area of the city just several years ago. Today though it is a beautiful and taken care city park that features the Belle Isle Aquarium, Anna Scripps Whitcomb Conservatory, Dossin Great Lakes Museum, the James Scott Memorial Fountain, and other attractions like Detroit Yacht and Boat Club and golf course.

Detroit skyline and Canada across the river.

Fascinating view :D

The photos are so nice! Did they all taken without editing? The colour of clouds are so real and clear

Yup! No editing whatsoever. They turned out quite decent I felt like there was no need to accent anything and it is #smartphonephotography contest, might as well present them the way they are :).
Thanks!

I see, I never know the camera features of Samsung Galaxy S7 has improved a lot. Thumbs up!

Very amazing photos. You are good photographer. I like very much creative pictures. Well done/ @kotturinn

Samsung Galaxy S7 is the best for camera.

wow that's an amazing place
Looks awesome beautiful
Great photography.

Thank you @blazing!

Beautiful scenerey! Would love to see this in person.

It is an awesome place to check out especially when it's warm!

I still prefer to take a photo with my camera, but I will buy a new one, but despite the good light, the phones also make beautiful photos.

For sure, phones can't beat professional cameras, but as you can tell from the title this is a #smartphonephotography contest.

Wow, very nice, i like the clouds in the pictures very much.

the third shot was quite impressive and amazing

Thanks, the fish in the pond are crazy, they would even eat Cheetos!

@kotturinn i feel like going to Belle Isle after checking out these pics.. very beautiful

That must have been a really "bad" neighborhood, if Detroit natives are saying that. Anyways, the greenhouses at Belle Island look classic & modern at the same!
