I have been shooting pictures for fun for over a year now and still continue to enjoy it. Today is the age of the camera phone and I found this out on a recent trip I took to the beach during Christmas break. For the family's Christmas present this year my aunt rented us a house at Bald Head Island (BHI), North Carolina where we usually go to the beach. The trip was awesome. I think we ended up having seventeen or eighteen family members present at one time or another, and it was good to have each other's company. During the trip some of my family members insisted that we go to the beach multiple times a day, Including in the evening to see the sunset. My brother had gotten a new lens for Christmas and he had that on hand testing that out. Unfortunately, I didn't think to take my camera along so I was stuck with my eight megapixel camera on my cell phone. Experimenting with this tool on this trip was a real eye opener. With the tiny camera on my phone, I was able to capture some great images of the sunset without any digital enhancement needed. This just shows that we are in the age of technology and we now are able to capture great photos when we least expect to with equipment that was inferior just a few short years ago. Seems pretty cool to me. I still wish I had my DSLR on hand on this trip, but I used what I had at my disposal and took some good shots.
