My Glass of Water

This photo was taken using a Lumia 1320, only cropped a little bit.

So here's the story:
One day, we were at a friend's place. It was a medium sunny afternoon, we were having a cuppa. Unfortunately, I don't drink tea or coffee so I got a glass of water instead. It was a little bit warm that day, so the friend asked me to open the blinds and the windows by the counter where I was sitting and having a drink. After I opened the blinds, my eyes were amazed with what I saw, and it was the sun's beam directly focused to my glossy glass of water, with sparkling projections on the countertop's surface.
 
Turning icebricks upsidedown, we found many small sculpture of ice. This is taken with my Lumia 1520, just days before I got my lovely 950XL. Taken in Norway.

A ditch reflecting the clouds during sunset in a typical polder landscape. Far below sea level. Cycling home from work. Water and Dutch.

Sunset in my town. This photo was taken with Nokia Lumia 928 without any filters or editing. I was returning home from work, saw this and had to stop to capture the moment.
 
Phone: Lumia 1520
Editing app:4BlendHDR
Story: I went to Sabie Mpumalanga in South Africa for work.The weather in Sabie is very damp and gloomy, it's always misty. One of the locals explained to me the weather is because of the trees planted(is one of the larges man made forests in the world) the tree pulls the clouds closer to get rain/moisture. In the morning when you go outside it always looks like it rained the whole night, but it's just because of the misty weather. So the picture was taken on my way to breakfast hall at the hotel when I saw this plant with the dew drops mostly along the edges of the leafs. Was a pretty picture to end my trip to Sabie

I'm no photographer. Know just enough to turn off flash, choose a slow(er) ISO, and try to be real still. But this 950XL is a wonderful weapon for the amateur. Stepped out on the balcony of my hotel room and took a quick "snapshot" with the much maligned 950XL. Panama City.
I love this crazy phone.
(had to reduce its size and resave (bummer) to get it to upload)

Picture taken on a trip to Kurashiki, Japan and taken at the Coffee-Kan on the canal , where the smell of the freshly roasted coffee is taking you to a different world within a different world.
The picture was taken with a Lumia 830 and no effects or filters were used.

Summer in December.

Photo taken with my Lumia 640 XL. Aside from the double exposure done in Fhotoroom, nothing was altered from these two photos I took today of the pool and the sky above it.

I keep a private Instagram account but my Flickr is fairly updated: flickr.com/rajahofsarawak

TITLE: POWER OF WATER
Location: Chennai, India
Phone: Lumia 1020
Photo editor: None, Natural image
Description: This snap was taken just 2 days before, in the midst of Flooding at Chennai. You can see a man waking with backpack in a chest deep water with great difficulty negotiating through the flood water gushing on a city street. You could see come cars half submerged in flood waters just few yards behind. Did not do any editing to avoid the distractions and reflect the natural sense of human emergency, pain and agony during city floods indicating the pure expression of "Power of Water".

Lumia 1020 - Sports mode. No editing it is what it is.

Shot at Sugden Regional Park in Naples Florida in September 2015 during the national jetski trials competition. They were just warming up and I happened to be on the dock when this guy decided to practice his flips.

This past October my wife and I toured the western US by car. If you want to take fantastic pictures all day long, day after day: Yellowstone National Park is hard to beat. Wildlife, beautiful scenery, history, so many photo ops it makes you drool. One of the biggest features of the park is the fact that it is perhaps the most geothermally active area on the planet: geysers, mud pots, fumaroles, hot springs almost everywhere you turn...

We tied our bandannas on over our mouths and noses to help filter out the fumes and stood our ground as clouds of sulfurous fumes wafted over us again and again. Many of my shots at this particular location were taken blind. I simply held my phone up and tapped away at the capture icon. I'm often thankful for the quantity of pictures made possible by modern digital photography. And thankful for the ease of shooting quality photos with Windows Phone. I got some great pictures.

The still mighty Nokia Lumia 1520, Lumia Camera 5, Rich Capture, no edits.

The rainbow like Grand Prismatic Spring.
