Porthole on the Future.


This little scene was snapped by borrowing my daughters little iXus camera. Whenever I don't take my own camera, these photo-opportunities seem to arrive. It's a conspiracy, I tell you. Fate has it in for me. 

It's not a bad little camera, but the lens distortion, noise and jpg compression is a little high. Especially the lens distortion which is made more obvious by the tile lines. I did try correcting the distortion but that circle gets twisted up in the process so I'll just live with it as it is.

    The porthole and young observer far outweigh any notable distortion. Outstanding shot!
    Some conspiracy.... so buy a small, pocket camera that has great reviews. Or Google Glass.

      Thank you! I'm very tempted by the new Fuji EX-2 to be honest... Google glass? Hmmm, I don't think so.
