iPhone fun in Bayeux, France
It's about time for another iPhone post, don't you think?
As I mentioned here in a previous iPhone post, I am way behind in sharing all these little images I grab with my iPhone when I travel. I was going through my iPhone photos recently and started counting up all the trips that I have taken over the last year or so, but haven't done an iPhone post on yet. It's about 10. That's too many.
So today, I am taking one off the list: Bayeux, France.
Let me start by repeating that I am WAY behind here. This trip was in June last year. See what I mean? I'm way behind, but hey at least I'm trying!
You might not think it from my inability to be consistent with these posts, but I actually enjoy them quite a bit. It's fun to run through 5-10 iPhone photos, process them and remember the scene, then relive it in my mind. It's like a miniature virtual vacation, but without the cramped airplane seats.
But since I travel pretty frequently, and also of course I have my "regular" photos that I share here 5 times per week, plus I am starting to write more articles...well, I just get behind on things.
Anyways, Bayeux is a great little town and I really enjoyed staying there for a few days. We chose the town due to it's proximity to Normandy/Omaha Beach, since we wanted to go to the American Cemetery there. Talk about a thought-provoking place. Wow.
But in addition to the World War II stuff, we just wandered and enjoyed this little town. I definitely recommend it as a base for Normandy, but you should absolutely have a car while there. You won't need it in town, but it makes it so much easier to get to the places you will want to go.
There is a beautiful cathedral (the first picture) and of course I just love shooting street scenes and the little shops that are scattered around. They're just so inviting looking to me.
Also, if you haven't seen it here before, I created an iPhone gallery on the site so you can just check out some of my favorites. I continue to upload more photos there as I get to them. Here's the link: http://nomadicpursuits.com/iphone-gallery
And by the way, all my iPhone photos are taken with the built-in camera app, and adjusted with Snapseed. Snapseed is so powerful and is basically all I ever use anymore!
