Instant photos – if you happen to have the phone
Now that I can take a photo any time with my phone I’ve started noticing the times when I can’t. Then I see something and think “aw, I would’ve wanted to take a photo of that.”
I don’t take the phone with me when I’m walking the dog but maybe I should. A couple of weeks ago in the morning there was a really wonderful full moon, the sky was clear and very dark. That would’ve made a wonderful photo. I thought, “it’ll be there when I leave for work”. Well, it wasn’t, a cloud had drifted over it. The next morning the moon and the whole setting was back — I didn’t have my phone. When it was time to leave for work, the sky had lightened too much.
Today I saw an interesting spray painting on the asphalt — and I didn’t have my phone. I’ll have to try and remember to take it with me tomorrow.
I always find that, when I don’t take my camera. And my cellphone camera is just too shitty for me to bother taking a picture of anything good, so I don’t. As a matter of fact, the only thing I take pictures of for my cellphone are people whose phone numbers I have in there so I can have the graphic of them when they call.
