Sunset from the ballpark -- *DIALUP WARNING*
Edited on Wed Apr-26-06 11:13 PM by SeattleGirl
I took these pictures with my camera phone the other night when I went to the Mariners' game at Safeco Field. We had seats on the third (top) level. These were taken from the outdoor patio area.

Downtown Seattle:


Looking west toward the waterfront. The mountains in the distance are the Olympics.

8. Thank you, MAHNY!
I know, the sky looks almost unreal, doesn't it. But I promise, no touch-ups or photoshopping was done. You are just seeing the pure beauty of where I live!

18. I Am Impressed!

I haven't downloaded any of the pics from my camera phone into my computer but it looks like I should. I already have the docking equipment. WOW! I can't believe how sharp and clear the pictures look.

21. Thank you, Joani Baby!
I was quite impressed too, I have to say. Would'a thought a camera phone could take such cool pics?

25. Amazing!

When I get back from NYC this weekend I'm going to make getting everything about my laptop set to travel a priority. I just ask an acquaintance who is a computer whiz if I can hire her for a few hours. I need to gather everything and make an appointment. If the cell phone takes pictures that good perhaps I don't need to buy a digital camera after all. :)

27. I can't wait to see your pictures!
