Rapturous! Inspirational & Interesting Photography

TV at local pasta place, originally uploaded by ozlady.

Killing 2 birds with one stone here – this is a television used to advertise the local pasta place near my home. Photo taken and edited completely on my Nokia N86 8MP for both the 2009 Photo Challenge and the November Challenge 2009!

Busy day, so sometimes you have to take the shots where you can find them!

This month’s challenge is to take photos with our camera phones – with no editing off the phone. Some of my challenge counterparts who have an iPhone will probably have the advantage on me with photo editing capability, but I think my Nokia N86 takes some pretty neat snaps.

The lock at my MIL’s place.  Taken with my Nokia N86 8MP. I was seeing what I could do with the present scene settings and DoF.

Our furniture gets plenty scarred after our cats get at it. For the most part they are pretty good, and considering there are three of them, it’s not too bad… but still, some battle scars are showing after 10 years.

Cats – 3, Furniture – nil.

My husband's old battered calculator watch

Today’s challenge is calculator. I think I was the first to post to the Challenge Group as I immediately grabbed my husband’s watch and took a photo. It’s old, well used and loved by him for the geek factor – he had wanted one for years!

I was looking up the daily challenge on my mobile phone. Having received the day’s keywords – motion blur – I looked out the window of my car while waiting for my husband and snapped this.

Total fluke but it was the best of any other motion shots I took that day.

I so often browse the photo challenge site on my mobile, that I thought the phone picture looked appropriate for today's photo

Indigo at the bike shop

While picking out a new bike for my daughter, I grabbed a few snaps – it was a good marriage of opportunity and today’s word.
