Two plastic bottles

The secret is in details. I absolutely love the way how mobile phone cameras and editing applications allow one to play with images. It may not turn one to any great artist, but at least it is a way to improve one's ability to see beauty on mundane scenes.

Here I took a picture of two plastic bottles, and edited the image on Snapseed application. One of my new tricks is to "squeeze" the picture from the original aspect ratio to a square. Then the so called "fake HDR" algorithm works very well on Snapseed. It often gives a nice touch even when there is no obvious need for it. And finally some improvements produce a fine grain that pleases the eye, I think.

Ultimately it of course much depends on how good images the camera can take (resolution and dynamic range especially in dark). This current phone camera of mine does just excellent work. Or at least good enough for me.

The whole scene on PiP/note, and also on the first comment.
