I just looked up on the internet what me and my friends should visit and I saw this park Vilnoja, it's in Lithuania, near the capital and we just went there, because there were sculptures in the lake and I just took this photo.



Phone: Sony Xperia Z3 and no other editing software was used.

Union Pacific 4017, "Big Boy" taken at the Green Bay, WI National Railroad Museum.

The Big Boys were the largest stream locomotives built, with 4 leading wheels, two sets of 8 drive wheels, and 4 trailing wheels. Only 25 were ever made, and 7 currently survive as displays. An 8th is supposedly being restored for actual service. Visitors to this one can climb into the cab for a look around, even looking into the MASSIVE coal car. More info for these beauties is at https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Union_Pacific_Big_Boy

Taken with my years ago on my LG Optimus S (wow, this was much older than I thought ) no editing.

I had to go downtown Dallas to get a copy of my son's birth certificate at the Dallas Courthouse. It was only appropriate to take a picture of the Old Dallas County Courthouse for history's sake when I was actually picking up a document also related to the history and record of my son's birth. Taken by my Samsung Galaxy Note 5, photo edited by standard editor to fully display the beauty of the Old Dallas County Courthouse.

In the spirit of this contest; history taken with an Android.
Connecting the "old with the new" the "past with the present".

I'm from the "old school arena";
Having played around in a real darkroom for a bit.

What is history? "but a spot, a place in time".

Bring on the cardboard,
Taken with Galaxy S5

I am having the same problem of not able to upload a picture. How did you resolved this issue? Is it a maximum file size issue?

Thanks

Mr Banks, Sir Thank you for your service.

I ended up going to the main website. The mobile version doesn't have a picture upload function that I saw. I was able to use the desktop version from my phone, and that did have the option to upload.

As for what the problem is, you got me. I could attach my pic just fine in other threads, and only this one was giving me problems.

 

[AndClicks]

Thanks Mooncatt for the quick reply!

I am using my computer though...weird.

This photo is taken with Moto X Pure Edition 2015 phone with some editing with Snapseed.

The Old South Meeting House is a historic church building at the corner of Milk and Washington Streets in the Downtown Crossing area of Boston, Massachusetts. Built in 1729, it gained fame as the organizing point for the Boston Tea Party on December 16, 1773. 5,000 colonists gathered at the Meeting House, the largest building in Boston at the time. Now it is dwarfed by the tall modern glass buildings, especially by the new construction building, The Millennium Tower Boston which will be the tallest building in Downtown Boston.

The Old South Meeting House has been an important gathering place for nearly three centuries. Renowned for the protest meetings held there before the American Revolution when the building was termed a mouth-house, this National Historic Landmark has long served as a platform for the free expression of ideas.

The picture upload problem was indeed a file size and resolution limit issue. This may be why some people are having trouble with uploading an image.
Check your file size and resolution to fit the guidelines.
