City abstracts from today

Myself:
Yes, I agree with your statement. It's been a while since I brought out my fab compact, a bit sad, because sometimes I miss the zoom. 
On the other hand, I would not bring it anyway in circumstances where I was not pretty certain I would be photographing, and that's when you have the phonecamera. This walk is a good example.

Very nicely judged compositions, Eolake.

Nice series Eolake! I especially like the first one, although I must admit that I'm a sucker for shadows.

Chase Jarvis was one of the first professional photographers who proved that you could get high quality, artistic photographs from a camera phone. His book, The Best Camera is the One That's With You was a best seller when it came out.

Thanks, Russ.

I'll check out that book.
