Sun shining after a violent rainfall produces a beautiful Rainbow on "Altare della patria" in Rome. My Lumia 1520 had nothing else to do than to use all the 20 mega pixel of the camera to catch such a great scenery. Small crop and a bit of contrast just to get rid of Rome pollution using Adobe Photoshop Express app and that's all. WP_20150327_18_16_23_Pro.jpg

This picture was taken on October 8, 2013 with my old Lumia 920 and WP camera app. No post processing.
A chilly fall day at Indian Lake in Lake Orion, Michigan. The lake water was much warmer than the air creating that mystical fog on this calm morning.

Hi.

This is a photo I took on the beach in Ayia Napa, Cyprus, with my partner. Cyprus is the island of love and birthplace of Aphrodite so a heart on the beach on a romantic holiday was a perfect image.
Although I have a Lumia 930 now, this was actually taken with a 920. Creative Studio was used to edit the hue, clarity and also focus and fade. FB_20150708_03_25_58_Saved_Picture.jpg

Here is my contribution. It is taken by my trusty Lumia 920 on a sunny day in Half Moon Bay, California. We were walking out from the beach and I snapped it without looking at the phone (which I like to do). Little modifications and cropping are done using Fhotoroom.

Switzerland in the evening - I was walking outside and saw the sun. I took my Lumia 640 DS LTE and made this picture with the Lumia Camera App.

This picture was taken with my Lumia 520, with the Lumia Camera app, no editing.
It was taken this spring, in my school yard, in Belgrade, Serbia, when everything started to bloom.

This view welcomed me to my parents' home after 5 years. This was just part of the icing on the cake that I was about to meet my parents after so long out of the country. Sure was a view that cannot be forgotten for a while.

Taken with my Lumia 1520
Shutter : 1/500
ISO:200
EV:-1.3
Increased the saturation by about 5%.

Just realized again...:smile: how much I love this phone. :grin:

Taken on a recent trip to Italy, we spent a few days on the Amalfi Coast. Sun was setting, so I pulled out my 1020. Made the adjustments with Adobe PS directly on my phone. Friends assumed I used my Canon 7D :)

Lumia 1520.3, Nokia Camera. I cropped off the bottom half of the 16MP portrait oriented picture using Office 2007 Picture Manager. No other edits.

It was full sunshine as my wife and I toured Palatine Hill and the Forum in Rome last October. Unlike the dark view historians paint of the man himself, that day the sunshine rained illumination upon his former dwelling seen here; the Palace of Caligula in the Roman Forum. I like the way the blazing light was captured and how it fades the ruins even more, highlighting the impermanence of what men build...

Remember Windows Phone 7.8? Well this picture was taken with a HTC Radar C110e. I was on vacation at the Black Sea seaside This picture was taken on the shore of Siutghiol Lake from Romania, which is my home country.

The sun was setting down over the lake, my hotel was located on the lake's shore, and I decided it is a good time to take a few pictures. This is one of them. It has been taken in August, 2013. I am still amazed about how much has evolved the Windows Phone in just 2 years.

Now I have a Nokia Lumia 1020, and I have taken plenty of sunshine shots with it, but I decided to post this old one, as a tribute to the great device that was the HTC Radar.
