Gallopy Gallopy Gallopy!
I was exceptionally lucky at the very beginning of this year to get a new cell phone; my first Smartphone; a Samsung Galaxy J3.
Although my previous phones could access the internet, they did not have WhatsApp or Skype – or any of the vast array of emoticons I now find at my disposal! (Yet, still no hamster?)
I love love love my new phone!
I can chat to my family in the UK, without it costing me anything, as long as I am connected.
And of course, I tried the camera out in the first few minutes.
The photo above of a glass horse ornament was my fourth photo. I played around with the settings and chose sepia.
I really like the effect, so decided to do a short series of ‘Galaxy photos’, like I did ‘Nikon photos’ way back when I got my Nikon camera. (Nikonography.)
Obviously my new phone camera does not have the quality of my Nikon camera, but it fits in my handbag and is fun to use.
I find a lot of my photos are blurred, because I do not keep my hand still and also I am not allowing the camera time to focus – Β sooooo used to my trusty point-and-click Canon!!
But as the whole purpose of my blog is to learn new things and have fun, here’s the new series anyway!
I hope you’ll enjoy it as much as I shall!
Sounds like the perfect gift. The glass horse is super cute π

Thanks! I do wish they were more professional sometimes. I always want to take the time and learn, but that requires me to either take the time, or find more time to do so!

I rarely use my phone camera because I find it very hard to hold it still. In general I am not a shaky person. Have fun with your new phone/camera π

Cell phone cameras have come a long way over the years. Pretty much all the pics I’ve posted for the past year were just cell pics. I look forward to seeing what you capture βΊ
