Another great piece of art. The contrast between the black and white / color seems to make the whole image sharper and stunning. I love how it "draws you in".

Every morning the same scene: a small but unmistakable scattering of garden debris, exactly where I hadn't left any.

Following on from yesterday's post ( What is RAW photography format? ), today I am going to share with you some ways you can take RAW DNG (digital negative) files using an Android device such as a smartphone or tablet.

Android Apps That Allow You to Take Photos in RAW Format Currently, these are the two apps I use on my Google Pixel XL ...
