Autumn fusion

Rainy color

Here's another shot of the fall colors as seen through my rain-covered windshield on the way to work the other morning:

Rain

We've been getting a lot of rain lately in St. Louis. I usually don't take any outdoor pictures when it's raining. But yesterday on the way to work, I decided to take advantage of the rain. Here is a photo taken from inside my car, looking through my rain-covered windshield at some vibrant fall color:

What a difference a week makes

The fall colors in St. Louis are either at or just past their peak. Below are two photos taken from a window at work, the first taken this past Friday and the other one taken seven days before that.

iPhone photography

I'm am really getting into the camera on my iPhone. The iPhone is almost always with me, and the best camera is the one that's with you. There are some incredible iPhone apps to enhance photos by the iPhone. Here are two images I took yesterday of some beautiful fall color. Click on each image to read about how I processed the original image taken by the iPhone into what you see here.

The best camera is the one that's with you

There's a book on my amazon.com wishlist called The Best Camera Is The One That's With You by Chase Jarvis. The photos in the book were all taken with Jarvis' iPhone over the past year. As stated on amazon.com: "This book is geared to inspire everyone, regardless of their level of photography knowledge, that you can capture moments and share them with our friends, families, loved ones, or the world at the press of a button."

While I love my new camera (a Nikon D40) and the sharp, beautiful photos it takes, this afternoon it did me no good, sitting at home on my kitchen table as the beautiful, fall-colored tree outside my office was screaming at me to take its photo.

With my iPhone in hand, I got a nice photo, and with the new Photoshop Mobile app for the iPhone, I was able to make the photo even nicer before uploading it to Flickr to share with the world.

I hope you like the following moment that I captured:
