This is sort of like putting lipstick on a pig. These photos were taken on my cell phone camera at night, and as happens with me, I wasn’t paying attention to what I was doing. Declare victory and move on.

The first picture was taken from a hotel balcony looking at a restaurant/bar across the street. I failed to put my Pixel 9 Pro in “Night Sight” mode, and I took the shot in regular photo mode. I call this one “A Grainy Night In Georgia”. This is noise out the wazoo. I fooled around with the LR de-noise slider with mixed success, so I decided what the hell, I’ll call it art. Nobody will know the difference.

The second picture was taken as my wife and I were standing in line at a theater, and I stuck the cellphone camera up in the air and hit the button. It didn’t grab focus. I figured I obviously wasn’t going to correct the focus, so I jacked up the colors and made it look like a circus. I’ll call it art, too.

Steven,
Thanks! I try not to take myself too seriously, but I am proud of my little mistakes. Sometimes things just work themselves out.

    Fast, sharp, and lightweight! A great lens
    This is my main workhorse of a lens and I love it. It's very light weight (only around 2.3 lbs) lens. I've been able to hand-hold it for an event...
