Mick, Daniel and Eleanor all have iPhones and they take great photos, I'm not expecting anything near that quality from my phone as it was nowhere near as expensive, but I'd like to be able to take some passable photos, that would do me. I think I just need some more practice with it.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17436932004631816039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5605977931488846865.post-49274814087290270222018-01-22T22:11:45.283+00:002018-01-22T22:11:45.283+00:00Good to see Archie out and about enjoying decent p...Good to see Archie out and about enjoying decent paths to walk along.
