April Showers

Jason came for a visit over the weekend and he and I enjoyed a day of shopping and a movie on Saturday. As we started across the James River Bridge on our way home, a storm was brewing.

This is a good example of one of my favorite sentiments - The best camera is the one that is with you! Jason drove and I aimed my iPhone at the remarkable weather spectacle! There's a wonderful book with the title of the sentiment filled with the author's iPhone photos.

If you'll notice in this photo, the tower which holds the power lines looks like it is dancing in the rain storm. That effect is just a result of the motion of the car and the not-so-fast shutter speed of my iPhone. I heard this morning that the next iPhones will have an 8 megapixel camera on board. Wow! That certainly won't replace my Nikon, but it will be great to have in my pocket!
