Out shopping with my little guy today and snapped this picture and didn't think twice about it until I went back and looked at how clear, sharp and color accurate it was. Being a professional photographer, I gotta say I'm really impressed.
This is a picture that is somewhat unremarkable... just a picture of a local lake this weekend. But what stood out to me was the detail. This is the Google Photos compressed version (don't have the original, but I haven't found a lot of compression loss anyhow).
Look at the condos and homes off across the water. Not only are the homes clearly visible, you can even make out fine detail, like window frames, etc.
Statue of Liberty pic is amazing ... We have some great photographers here. I always wondered why most people that write reviews take such awful shots. Next time they should ask some of you with the better eye!
