August 10, 2018 – Day 284 – iPhone 7 Plus Daily B/W Photo Challenge – You never know – Today’s photo is pretty much a failed attempt, even though it’s kind of interesting to look at! I used an app called ProCamera which has a low light image stacking feature where it takes up to 64 images and combines them into a single file and I decided I’d try taking a picture of the Milky Way last night with it. This is the result! Faint outline of the trees below, what should be Mars and a lot of noise, or perhaps some of it is actually stars. Perhaps it’ll work better in brighter, low light situations. Just testing the limits of my iPhone 7 Plus! You never really know if it’ll do something unless you give it a try, in my opinion!

August 9, 2018 – Day 283 – iPhone 7 Plus Daily B/W Photo Challenge – Take a seat – I have been eyeing the design and color of the seats around the tables at the First United Bank Plaza here in downtown Madisonville, Ky for some time. The white gravel along with the silver tables and chairs lend themselves so much to a black and white photograph that I picked them for my photo today.
