Mick Yates
This week’s smartphone photograph is by Mick Yates, using an iPhone 13 Pro Max.
“My wife Ingrid and I live in the UK, and are in the Netherlands to attend the funeral of Ingrid’s mother. We are staying at our usual hotel in Vught, and I have been taking a series of early morning photographs. Whilst most mornings have had lovely sunrises, yesterday was misty, and the view from the room was quite magical.
I used an iPhone 13 Pro Max, and am very impressed with the camera system. The photograph was taken using the Adobe Lightroom app, in pro (manual) mode), and then converted to black and white in Lightroom on my MacBook.”
