Recently took a vacation and went to Hong Kong for a visit. It has been almost 5 years since I last visited. This trip was mainly to catch up with friends and family, as well as for food and shopping. I didn’t bring my Canon gear with me, instead I had with me an older iPhone 3GS and my newish Lumix GF2 for the trip. Here are some photos I took using the iPhone 3GS. To my surprise, the older iPhone performed pretty well with Camera+.

All the photos in this post were taken using the iPhone 3GS.

With the recent purchase of the Lumix GF2, I now have 3 types of cameras I can use. DSLR for quality and abundance of accessories, Micro 4/3 for light weight and fully manual photography, and the iPhone 4 for the casual and leisure type photography.

All these photos are taken using an iPhone 4 and uploaded directly from Camera+ after some effects and borders are added in the app.

It has been a while since I visited the University of British Columbia. I attended my classes there many many moons ago and now going there for a leisure walk has a totally different feeling. Especially during the summer break where there is hardly anyone around, it feels a bit deserted but feels like the campus is very calming. Hope you enjoy these photos taken during the Anime Evolution 2010.

Here are some photos of wild flowers taken last weekend.  I thought the photos would be totally shorty from the sun blasting right above us but they kind of turned out okay….
