Photo taken with my Note 4 and edited using Aviary.

This was taken in August on Ile aux Marins in St Pierre and Miquelon, France...an island located between Newfoundland and New Brunswick. The grave site is the final resting place to many sailors who died in shipwrecks (over 600 recorded) in the 'mouth of hell', a water way between the Island and St Pierre.

Underneath the dome at the St. Louis Basilica. Shot with my Nexus 5, very minor lighting post-editing, but that's it.

This the Oculus of the Pantheon, the eye of the old gods, gazing upon the Christian desecration of their ancient temple.

Turns out they did an alright job...

Shot on a lowly HTC M8, with just a bit of a colour fiddle done onboard.

This picture was snapped around New Years 2014 with my old Nexus 5 and edited (to black/white) in the Google+ Photos app. It shows one of the incredibly elaborate pillars of the Lonja de la seda in Valencia, Spain. IMG_20141230_115349.jpg

Taken with a Samsung Galaxy S6 in Bath Abbey in the UK. The whole building was made from the local limestone and the carvings are brilliant.

Washington National Cathedral in Washington DC, taken with my Nexus 6. FYI, IIMG_20150730_112906.jpgn the 1980s, while the west towers were under construction, Washington National Cathedral held a decorative sculpture competition for children. Word of the competition was spread nationwide through National Geographic World Magazine. The third-place winner was Christopher Rader, with his drawing of that fearful villain, Darth Vader. The fierce head was sculpted by Jay Hall Carpenter, carved by Patrick J. Plunkett, and placed high upon the northwest tower of the Cathedral.

Here is, bar none, the most ornate toilet paper holder I have ever seen.

IMG_20150508_081640.jpg

My wife and I were staying in a bed and breakfast, and I found this to my delight. The paper roll was held beneath this, but was cropped out because toilet paper is only exciting when you need it.

This was taken with my Nexus 6 and cropped, straightened and color adjusted with the Google Photo web interface.

I believe Christmas Trees are meant to be Ornate... :) Here's the photo taken from my Note 4 last year. My wife, my dog and I spent almost 3 hours drinking, barking and singing while decorating the tree and of course playing with that little train...

This is a family. You can see Mother (Left) and two daughters. They love play at our door step. Shot was taken few minues before a heavy rainfall. Edited by adding Venus filter and about 70% Vignette in Google Photos web interface. No cropping.

Camera: One Plus 2 - Primary Camera

This is the Bradbury Building in Downtown Los Angeles, an architectural landmark built in 1893, and one of the few remaining 19th century buildings in Downtown. This is about as victorian ornate as wrought iron, carved wood and glazed tiles can get.

Taken with Nexus 6, edited for exposure.
