Another week has gone by..

It's been more than a week since I took some of these, but I feel like I may have to do weekly iPhone photo updates. It's so easy to pull out a phone, vs carrying around my lovely Nikon (Don't get me wrong - I carried that thing with both lenses for about 5 hours yesterday).


 A seriously yummy (although feta would have been nice) Greek salad while camping on the long weekend.. that was so good it deserved two shots.
A photo from the same weekend of the Tantalus Range, which I used a fish eye app on, and then decided I didn't really like the app..

 Beautiful downtown flowers last Friday..

 My garden Saturday morning..

An Astragalus (i think) at Iona Beach on Saturday..

 The girls' shoes..

 And an edited version of the flowers from downtown.

I'm really enjoying instagram! I think I'd like something normal versioned for real photos, because I like to play with them, without having to go through annoyingly complex programs. I think that's the main reason that I like instagram - it's easy to use and the results are instant.

Chehalis

Almost a month ago now, we went to Chehalis to go camping for the night. We were supposed to go hang-gliding that day but unfortunate events the week before meant that was definitely not happening (and probably won't be for a while..)

 A trillium (I posted an iphoto version last post)

 The view from our campsite of the Chehalis River. It was noisy at night, but thankfully didn't keep me up too late.

 Cool rock/moss thing. This was really common on the riverbed (I have a feeling that the riverbed was changed somehow, or that it doesn't flood as much as it used to).

 So many Pacific Bleeding Hearts..

 And so much moss. I love love love these old, mossy forests. Everything is so vibrant and awesome.

 Apple blossoms!

And, after a rainy Saturday afternoon, a gorgeous, sunny Sunday.

iPhone-ography

I recently got an iPhone, and I have to say.. I'm pretty impressed with the camera!

Here's a few photos from the last week.

A trillium at our campsite near Chehalis last weekend..

Canada Place yesterday in the lovely sun!

Sunset towards Granville Bridge


No HDR and HDR photos of the same thing. The amount of detail that a phone is able to get with a quick photo astonishes me!


And a few Instagram photos for fun. R watching TV, and me baking..
