Dear Steemian friends, it has been almost a year since I joined steemit last year. It has been a mixed bag for me as a blogger at this platform. I know I could have grown more but still I am very happy to be a part of this great community built on a great concept. Most of the time, I try to share my own photographs which may not be stunning but I think they are worth sharing with friends as I'm not a pro photographer. I use my smartphone a lot to shoot randomly. And in many occasions I use my dedicated camera as well especially to take macro images.

Recently, I got myself a tripod mount (Mefoto Sidekick 360) for my smartphone to take some stable long exposure shots. Here is one such trial shot from my apartment's rooftop which captured a portion of my city's outskirt with some light trails and city lights.

The next one is at dusk where some local youths were enjoying a game of cricket at a nearby playground. The Photograph was edited using Adobe Lightroom CC Mobile app.

Here is another long exposure shot where i found a cow by the side of the highway.

Photography is a great way to enjoy the sorrounding and capture some great moments for life. The photos that I shared may not imply great moments or memories but the shear variety and of what we can capture with a camera is itself no less than a wonder.

Thank you all and Have a great day!
