Great photos, Holly! :-)

Thanks to the modern invention of the mobile phone with camera incorporated, (+ all the other gadgets!), it's easier than ever to take a quick snap of anything that catches your attention. :-)

Some years ago my wife bought me a digital camera for our wedding anniversary. It cost her over £200 & I used it for a few years. But last year I had to get a new mobile phone as mine had broken. As the year has gone on I have found myself taking more & more with the phone. I did take the digicam with me to Spain at Christmas but since coming back home I haven't taken it out once! I now have at this moment 2008 photos on my phone! I still have room for more yet!

I take photos of anything & everything that takes my fancy & being as the phone is small enough & light enough to carry in my trousers pocket I whip it out constantly to take a snap!

yes its amazing how technology changes, i have a phone camera but prefer my digital camera... my son and i love taking photos of the wildlife and flowers....
