Proof's in the Pudding

 My last post was about snapping photos at that scenic vista on your next road trip. So I figured I'd share one I found from a box of printed photos. I think I took this about 25 years ago with a 35mm Pentax or Ricoh camera:

Is this my favorite photo I've ever taken? No, of course not. But if memory serves me, I had my camera on a hike while in high school and took just a second to (try) to get the settings right and snap something that looked interesting.

What's the story here? What did this rock wall used to be? Likely it was some sort of turn-of-the-century settler's homestead, or perhaps just an entry marker to a rancher's land. Either way, I found it interesting so stopped for just a second to take in the sights and snap a pic.

This was before smartphones, and before digital photography really became accessible to us common folk. Long story short, enjoy your trip, but take a moment to smell (and photograph) the roses.

Take a picture, it will last longer!

Ok, so don't spend the entire trip behind your phone. Enjoy the sights and sounds. 

But when you do happen upon that scenic vista or brightly colored flower, take a minute to snap a photo. Even if it's with your phone, taking a quick photo will help the memory last.

What's more, if you do happen upon those rare gems that you can manage to capture with the phone, you can post to Shutterstock and maybe even make a few bucks.

There are TONS of great how-to blogs and websites devoted to taking great cell phone pics. It all depends on what you're shooting and what you're shooting with.

Just remember, when you get home, take a few minutes and upload your photos to a photo sharing site...you might just make a few bucks for your trouble!
