Post for week 2. As mentioned in my last post, this is a picture of the one room schoolhouse on the Eastern Washington University campus. Shot with a Nexus 4 and processed in Snapseed to give it a dated feel.

This is the new Gateway at Madison College. I took the photo with my LG Optimus S and edited it using Paper Camera.

Hi, this is a picture of my school (XL LO z oddziałami dwujęzycznymi im. Stefana Żeromskiego w Warszawie) that I have been attending for the last 2 years and will be attending for this 1 last year. This year I am taking my matriculation and a chromebook pixel would certainly help with various school projects and so that I am not distracted. hope that this picture conveys the feeling of this school.

Phone: Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000, running Stock Samsung Jelly Bean which is the worst update in history (extremely slow, complaints about it on XDA everywhere)
Camera: Stock Samsung camera
Software: I used Photoshop Touch to introduce a light, warm fitting filter and aviary for another, more complex filter. Light was touched-up in Photoshop Touch. I also used PicsArt to introduce a 1 pixel all-side black border around it.

I hope that I win this contest, next year I will be heading off to university (if all goes according to plan) for mathematics. I believe a chromebook pixel would greatly increase my chances of getting in to the ones I want and help me greatly with the degree (mathematics) I want to study. As for the phone, I just can't live with my current one. Worst part is is that I will have to still use it for another 4 years, that is until I have finished uni.

I took this pic last year at a place called Khandala station in India using my Motorola Defy MB525, was gonna post the instagram version of this pic but my Defy has fallen for the deadly random reboot sickness which this model suffers from and I lost all my data.

My friends and I were heading out to start our trek at Dukes Nose near this place. Along the way we had to cross over to the other side by using the foot over bridge. Just as we entered the station, this baby approached us from the opposite side and came to a standstill right in front of me. My friends are pro-photographers but this pic I took lazily turned out to be the best of it all.

I say this because the trip was an unforgettable one. We never did make our destination. We got lost on the way :) And as you can see from the picture, it was raining cats and dogs. But thats the beauty of hill stations here. They are amazing in the rains! We ended up enjoying and taking tons of photographs along the way (granted after a certain point we told not to take pics of a nearby place as it was the Navy's training ground ...no kidding). It was adventure in itself.

The fun thing that makes it even more :) endearing to us :) is that we decided to finally complete it this year. And this time we took a car instead of the bus+train route. Turns out the place from where we called it quits last year turned back to go home was just a 100 metres or so away from the actual base of our trek!!!!! It was so funny. What made it more special was the fact that after completing the trek we realised that the peak was too steep to climb in the rains. Oh and once again we got lost...but not for long.... we just ended up next door at Duchess Peak 8).

Nothing beats a trek where you climb to the peak and in the background you hear the Navy guys firing away at the firing range. For something that should have been one the easiest treks we have undertaken, it took us almost 2 years and twice the fun to complete it.

And this picture just brings back all those memories. :)

Taken with a Motorola Atrix HD.
I'm not in school and don't have any kids in school, but back to school season for me means the end of summer. Colder nights, early sunsets, and one last getaway before fall.

This was taken on a recent trip to Gatlinburg, TN with my wife and month old daughter! It was taken with my Galaxy Nexus' photo sphere and edited in Snapseed. This is from the Overlook looking over Gatlinburg towards Clingman's Dome, the highest point in the Smokies. Enjoy!

I'm done with school and with studying, but when I think about the start of a new school year, the first thing that passes through my mind is this damn annoying alarm clock !:mad:

I took this while at Point Dume, which is a secluded beach right around Malibu, California. Took it with my Galaxy S4 and edited with Snapseed.

Back to school for me means the end of summer, and the end of beautiful summer days at the beach like this.
