True Love from those

Oh be still my Heart! Are not these Roses out of this world gorgeous? Can you tell me which two pictures were taken by my Samsung Galaxy S6 phone? Yes, you heard me correctly. Four images were taken by my Canon while there are two in this post that were taken by my Samsung. Me oh my! How does technology do it packing such a powerful camera in a tiny space on my phone while my Canon in comparison is big and heavy? I don’t know about you but I’m stunned by these results!
Don’t be shy. Tell me in the comments which images you think are taken by my cellphone. I dare you! 😉

They are absolutely gorgeous. I am not sure I can tell them apart easily for which were taken by the phone camera.

Hi, Erika, and welcome back to WP. Yes the first one is correct but there really is a second one in there taken by my Samsung. It’s crazy to think that an image taken by a cellphone is just as good or almost as good as one taken with a professional camera. That’s a pause for reflection! Have a great weekend! 💞

Hi Amy!
Beautiful roses!! Incredible photos as usual!! I could only hope to take photos as stunning. It really is hard to believe a phone can take pictures similar in quality to a canon! I noticed though, I favor the Canon shots, my favorite is #2, with #4 as a close second – the depth is superb! Lovely message too! Thanks for sharing, lovely!!

Hi, Donna. I’m as stunned as you are because my Canon 6D is a professional camera and to have my cellphone taking pictures “almost” as good, well, that gets me thinking about things. As for you taking pictures like this all I can say is practice continually. Play around with settings. Play around with how to take a certain picture from different angles or different settings. Getting down to the ground and NOT moving takes muscles and discipline. I highly recommend Yoga or some sort of exercise that both builds strength and allows for flexibility. I’ve put years in for both the photography and the exercise, and I’m still learning (in both). I allow what I see with my camera to connect to my Heart and then I seem to slip away into a world of my own. The message is Universal and so important for everyone to understand because in this world of ours we are taught Love is found in the “other” person. No. We must learn to Love ourselves first before we can even recognize what True Love is. (smile) You are very welcome for my sharing ….. I LOVE sharing. Have a great weekend, dear friend! 🌹

AmyRose, I use my cellphone photos occasionally and don’t feel any need to ID them as such, yet my phone is not the latest, greatest and only 5 mp. Still, my Sony takes pictures in difficult lighting and a phone can’t do that we’ll, no matter. But why would anyone buy an inexpensive camera these days when we have phones? You have some beautiful roses, for sure. 🙂 👍💛

Robert, thank you for the compliment for my beautiful roses, that I Love so much! I work hard to give those roses the best environment possible to flower for me. As for talking about Samsung versus Canon, I did so because my amazement was skyhigh to see such quality photos from my cellphone when compared to my “professional” very expensive Canon camera. I normally do not post pics of my flowers that were taken by by my cell but that is slowly beginning to change. I’ve been posting landscape pics and cat pics taken by my Samsung and there again the quality is up there. Just totally mind blowing to me. Sadly I think the “professional” heavy cameras usage will decrease over time due to the lightness and convenience of a cellphone. There is still something, though taking pics with a “big” camera. I still will no matter what. 🙂 ❤

Nothing compares to a full frame for poster size pictures and landscapes, for sure. 🙂 I loved the 6D but it was a magnet for the wrong crowd when travelling where and how I do at times. My little Sony APSC is great so no complaints. 📷
