As They Say, “The Best Camera …”

… is the one you have with you.”

Or something like that, anyway. (And yes, I know many would argue with that, but just let me run with it for now.)

When Dan and I were in Ghent we visited “Graffiti Street”. It really was as colorful as you might expect, and quite fun to see. As we were walking through a cyclist suddenly came toward us. I had my iPhone in hand — but it wasn’t open at the moment — and I quickly hit the little camera icon that appears at the bottom right of it. I had to work so quickly I got all of one shot in, not knowing if it would work at all.

May I saw that it worked?! I think so, in any case.

Dan is usually the one to catch stuff like this. But it was my turn. And I’m rather proud of myself (in the most humble of ways, of course.)

(And yes, I will post this at my travel site as well.)

Good morning … and goodbye!

Off I go. A Music in the Mountains Christmas concert is calling. This isn’t a job I normally play, but the regulars live too far away to do a short run like this, so I get the opportunity. I’m happy to go up there!

Meanwhile, I do think about the fun we had last year in New York. If I could go back again this Christmas I’d be there in a heartbeat. Instead I’ll just look at the photos from last year. This scene — and the double shot of phones — just made me smile and I had to capture it.
