A Celebration of Technology (a.k.a. Happy Mother's Day from Rundy)

Though I've been really pleased to have the ease of a camera phone so I can snap quick slice-of-life photos these days, I've bemoaned the poor quality of my blurry phone photos for a while now. Why? Simply because I appreciate the nicer photos I can take when I have greater stores of time available to me; photography is fun. This bemoaning has lacked any real fervor, though; I am keenly aware that a fancy camera with lots of manual settings sounds lovely but really wouldn't see enough use to be worth the money at this frenetic stage of my life. 

Enter Husband, who found Mother's Day to be a sufficient excuse to spoil me with a new phone with a better camera. (Anything I say about how sweet he is now will just sound cheesy and materialistic, but I'll say it anyway. He is awfully sweet.)

And look!!!

My very first four test shots taken this morning.

Exhibit A--Husband who wasn't fully aware he was being photographed.


Exhibit B--Cute boys in grubby pajamas playing in the morning sunshine.



All the new Marnie monthiversary photos are credit to the new phone, too. 

Aaahhh. So satisfying.

Definitely didn't need it. 

Definitely will enjoy it.

Thank you, Rundy. <3
