Thank you. indeed, I did not spend a lot of time on them. I just tried to snag a few shots in-between work sessions at the horseshoe.

I found it pretty tricky to get a crisp picture. All pictures are right off the camera except for the horizontal S2000 picture which is just a slight crop. No editing. Overall I'm pretty happy with this first attempt.

This isn't an amazing shot, but I noticed my wife and son walking in front of me while we were at this place today, whipped the camera to my face, and took this shot:
Barely had more than a second to think about it in the moment. HOWEVER, I noticed we were walking into a dark hallway with well-lit windows (to replicate a storefront). I already had a picture like this in my head before the shot above was even taken.
Of course...if I'd have thought to up my shutter speed the first time, I'd have ended up with this (which I got by asking my wife to hold still):
Looking at the two shots, I liked the first one better because of the softer lighting, but the background's a little bit of a distraction.
What do you think of this 5min edit?
These pictures were taken with my Galaxy Note 3 More to come

What do you think of the composition of these two images?
Interestingly, the first one was taken using a diffuser for the pop-up flash that I'd made from a milk jug:
I've been there! My wife and I visited the Amana Colonies when we lived in Des Moines. We stayed in nice bed & breakfast
I tried Macro again today. I've never seen my cat sleep this soundly before, so I took a few pictures of her. Last time I tried Macro I got some feedback to try increasing the DOF a little so that it didn't scream that it was taken with a Macro lense.
