Decided to play with my iPhone, with this result:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

There is a bit of a learning curve...but I'll get better at it eventually.

[Glamrock]

1. No offense Peggy,

But I always thought you we're younger. Must be the mind!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

3. You scared me, my dear Glamrock!

But all is well now.

I guess I have a young attitude!

[Glamrock]

10. I'm sometimes clumsy with my words...

That was my point. It really wasn't supposed to be a back handed compliment. And truth be told.... I'm a little "in the cups this evening!" I'm glad you were able to suss out the meaning....

[CaliforniaPeggy]

11. Ah, no worries! Enjoy your beverage.........

[Glamrock]

16. Enjoy your new phone!

New tech is always fun....

And since you showed your face, I'll show mine. I would be the very handsome Singer in the center. LOL!

[Hekate]

2. Hiya, Peggy!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

4. Hey there, my dear Hekate!

Nice to see you tonight!

[rusty quoin]

5. Thats funny Peggy. I do stuff like that all the time, and ask my daughter whats wrong with it.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

7. I'm sorry, rusty!

I can't believe you're doing anything wrong...maybe you need a new camera?

[rusty quoin]

9. No, its just me with tech. You will be better. The screen is open to all kinds of mistakes.

[MLAA]

6. So this is the great photographer! Keep those beautiful moon shots coming!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

8. Well, I dunno how great I am. I do get lucky now and then! I plan to continue.

[HipChick]

12. I am one of the rare folk that only ever use my Iphone for

Phone calls...I have no apps installed whatsoever...

[CaliforniaPeggy]

15. The camera looks useful as a point and shoot one, and I will use it for that.

Otherwise, it's just a phone!

[True Dough]

13. Good for you, Peggy

I have held an iPhone in my hands on several occasions and I developed an aversion to it, like other Apple products. I'm just not a Mac guy. My preference is definitely PC/android.

But if you find the iPhone to your liking, that's great.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

14. I am not really a Mac person. But my husband is, and he bought me my iPhone!

And I'm now thinking that I will use the camera in the phone in place of my long-defunct point and shoot camera.

Of course, I will continue to do my major photography with my beloved Nikon/Tamron combo!

[True Dough]

17. It is surprising

how far camera phones have come. They can't match top quality digital or film-based camera gear, but for a fraction of the price cellphone cameras produce very good images, and they're only getting better.

23. I have found this site to be very informative about pics on iPhone

18. What a great picture!!

[iluvtennis]

19. You did good.

[UCmeNdc]

20. It is a great selfie!

[The Wielding Truth]

21. Gee. That's not bad at all. You are smiling, your eyes are open and you have a clean background.

Nice job. My pictures are so much worse.

[BigBearJohn]

22. Pretty Lady

[Laffy Kat]

24. What a beautiful face you have!

When you're finished with yours, show me how to use mind. I still haven't figured out most of the features.

25. New cell phones make images on par with the best P&Ss.

Better than some. Can't speak for Apple but Android has apps that give you a lot of creative control including HDR, burst, ISO, and art filters. My Lover likes her S7 because it gets out of her way and let's her compose. We have 3 of her photos decorating the bedroom; two 13x19 and a 11x14. All are sweeping scenes from NM, what the phone is best at.

26. I like it

Very nice
