    I recently climbed Mt. Fuji and was rewarded with this view. Taken with a Note 7.

    Thanks! Even the best camera in the world couldn't have done that moment justice.

    I spent a year abroad in Xi'an, China and just came back in July. This was my temporary home:

    My favorite picture, though, is probably from Victoria's Peak. I know, everybody shoots from the same perspective and most have probably better luck with the weather too. But this is a really high-res image that is put together from many shots. If I move to a new apartment, I want to get this printed out with at least 3m width.

    Our school just bought Photoshop and Lightroom, and this is a simple photo I took on a week long sailing trip in Florida with my phone's camera. (Nexus 6)

    Doesn't hold a candle to so many of these, I guess I just enjoy documenting my travels. Sun rising on the Blue Ridge Parkway in September of 2016...

    I always love to make an attempt at grabbing a good image of the supermoon. I took this one last night, but after seeing the moon this morning I think I'll be getting up early for another attempt tomorrow.

    I took this at the peak of the fall season in the New Hampshire White Mountains this year with my mom's old Nikon D90. I wouldn't tote myself as a photographer, but did have fun with the camera that weekend.

    On a recent trip to Japan.

    Such a majestic view, unfortunately, I was on the bus with only my iPhone! What a buzz kill!

    @fraggler At least, we got both the top and the bottom covered as well both camps of Apple and Samsung! LOL!

    I'm not sure if these names are real lol...

    Nevermind, I read one as "assinbone"...

    @msommers What lens(es) did you use for these? I'm using an 11-16, mostly for architecture, but these are amazing, especially in the tones...I don't know if this is a social frau frau, but any photoshop? Is this like asking some women about their age??

    Okay, how do you @somebody? I haven't figured it out so far..

    Thanks to shipsupt for the tagging info! I guess I type too fast.

    Oh, I'm not too worried about that, after all I am basing my judgement on the picture and not the actual place, though it'd be a bonus if the names were accurate.
