Phone Pix 82: Black and White

Take a few inanimate objects, snap pictures of them with the iPhone7, remove the color, and voila! Old-fashioned photographs of timeless objects.

Enjoy!

Phone Pix 81: Flowers for Mommy

I saw some beautiful flowers on display at Trader Joe's the last time the wife and I visited Fremont. So I just had to capture their beauty.

All of the photos were taken on May 4, 2017 with my iPhone 7 camera and I sure am pleased with the results. I hope you are too.

The pictures are dedicated to my mother Dorothy, who passed on last week.

It's spring at last! And what better way to celebrate than to share phone cam pictures of lovely flowers I'm taken over the past few years.

Phone Pix 79: Black/White Around the House

Some photos look better in black and white, particularly inanimate objects. Here are some pix that I took around our house and my son's Fremont house, and converted to monochrome.

Hope you like 'em!

Phone Pix 78: Mckinley Car Wash Orchids

McKinley Car Wash, located on Kapiolani Boulevard across from the McKinley High School football field, has an orchid line-up that most people don't know about.

The orchids grace the walkway that leads to the little shop where you pay for your car wash. After paying your bill (which isn't very substantial considering the quality of work they do there), you can stand outside and watch the crews finish up in a most efficient manner.

Or, you can do what I did: Walk back down the orchid walkway, whip out your camera, and take pictures of the lovely flowers.

And here they are, photographed on Aug. 12, 2016:

Phone Pix 77: Hawaii Advanced Imaging

The waiting room at Hawaii Advanced Imaging is full of interesting items. I discovered this when I took the wife in for an MRI earlier this year on April 12.

Certainly worthy of some mobile phone camera snapping, there was nothing complicated, just interesting and photogenic.
