Say No to Bullfighting
(c) John Corney
The region of Catalonia, Spain, which includes Barcelona, recently banned bullfighting. Lately I've read where a couple of matadors have been gored, one in Mexico, the other in Spain. Both were short-term victories to the bulls which end up being "destroyed" in a fit of rage no doubt akin to "How dare you not play by OUR rules". A bull in northern Spain this week jumped the barrier of the arena and managed to get revenge on a few of the spectators before he was "put to death". I guess the bull saw that it had nothing to lose (video below of the naughty bull's rampage in the crowd). All of which reminded me of my own effort above of encouraging people to "Say No to Bullfighting".

Posted
Note: This post was originally published on January 16, 2017, as the second part of a three-part series on RAW format mobile photography. Some details — particularly the apps' feature sets, Android versions, and the state of mobile RAW photography — have changed considerably since then. I've left the original text in place as a record of where things stood at the time. 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. Currently I am using a Google Pixel XL smartphone running on Android 7.1.1 (Nougat). If you haven't yet read yesterday's post, I recommend that you take the time to do so to give you an understanding of the advantages of taking your photos in RAW format.
