Yesterday I was in a hurry so I shot all these images using my Iphone. But my constant companion – Phone – hates my laptop. No reason. Just fact. And if I say it often then enough surely it will become a fact?
These pictures took 24 hours to appear in my email and so now I am able to bring them to you, given that I create the blog on my ancient laptop with the worn out key board and all. I sigh. I shake my head. But I can never rely on Phone to share. This blog post is twelve hours late – but that’s ok. There are no rules you know.
Well, of course you know. Phone knows this as well.
However they did turn up and better Late than Never – though if someone actually said that to me, and in that kind of jaunty tone, I would slap them.
Pictures with a purpose are like letters, they are nothing unless Sent. Read. Seen.
I hope you had a lovely day.

oh such gorgeous photos!
We once had a car that stalled whenever you turned left – only left. Having to describe that to our mechanic led to great chuckles on his part. It turned out there was a sound mechanical reason why ‘only left’. Maybe that phone of yours needs to be held ‘just so’ for the right connection to be made. 😉 It DOES take lovely pictures.
I suspect the phone might want a newer version of iTunes or the operating system, though trying that on an old laptop could be a very big mistake. I wouldn’t trust a smart phone for anything other than phone calls and even that depends on a good connection. I’ve seen many text messages turn up a day or two late, even in a big city.
You have to admit these photos are incredibly sharp. Truly beautiful–and well worth waiting for!
Including the black and white.
The Fellowship agrees. Great photos. Of course you have an interesting view of things. Good rest.
Agree with Mad: my ‘smartphone’ must have come the very last in the exams – can’t be bothered answering the phone in my neck of the woods, won’t even ring half the time and I better not attempt ringing out!! Oh, it loves text messages – oft sends 2-3 of the same on . . . and knows how to add up my meagre data allowance even when I have not touched the silly thing! Another ten dollars and then another automatically added on . . . . Lovely to get a post at this time of the day: am not the last in line and ’tis nice to sneak away from work for a minute . . .
Better late than never! These are gorgeous photos from your phone!
Yep, time-labour saving devices work well… until they don’t. It helps to simply appreciate what they do when they do it well. And as you did, have a work-around for when they don’t.
I’m not sure if it will work for you but my work-around is to have my phone pics automatically back up to the Microsoft OneDrive cloud which I can then access from my laptop, or tablet. It’s good your pics showed up in time, they beautifully convey the day ♡
The pictorial description is too good and even the photos are very nice.
The machines are running the world Miss C 🙂 You have the makings of your own dystopian novel I think.
Worth waiting for…. My favourite is the one with the smoke, I love that graphic grey scribble in the sky. Technology is wonderful until it has a dummy spit and then there’s nothing worse.
The smoke photo worried me a bit but those were all great shots. Even the cat under the car.
I wondered what all the smoke was about, too. I guess since you didn’t mention it, it’s not a problem.
Gorgeous! Love the fuzzy-headed red cow. The smoke photo looks like a painting! No piggies, shucks
