Thank you! Bow

These camera phones have come quite a long way I must say. As of yet nothing will equal a dedicated DSLR but I am quite satisfied with the quality for the most part given the ease and portability of just having to carry around your phone in order to take pictures.

When I visited Kiyomizudera in November of 2012, I was so impressed with the amazing fall foliage. As you well know, Tu, we here in Southern California have nothing like that.
