Taken during my evening hike at Rancho San Antonio Open Reserve tonight.
Photograph Details -
Nexus 6 - Awesome camera with excellent details in shadow areas. Tends to overexpose. However, if you meter for the highlights (in other words - touch the bright areas in the frame..for example around the sun here)..it does an excellent job.
Post Processing - I used Snapseed 2.0. Lifted Shadows, adjusted ambiance, saturation, selective saturation burn, contrast, and sharpness. All on my mobile device (Nexus 6).
I am really impressed with how tools for photography have become completely mobile. It is scary enough for me to start thinking that DSLR will become obsolete for 80% of my use cases and 100% of a casual photographers use case!
I am planning to do an instructional video for editing using Snapseed.

It was pretty windy so unfortunately I got a bit of tripod shake so the 3 exposures didn't align perfectly.

View from Page Mill Road above Palo Alto along my temporary commute route (while my usual route is being cleared of a huge rockslide from the recent rains.) The cluster of tall buildings at the right is downtown San Jose; the white dots at the horizon are Lick Observatory on Mount Hamilton in the Diablo Range.

The spaceship has landed... and it's in Sunnyvale. Long-time valley residents will recall that the Bank of the West at 380 South Mathilda used to be a First National Bank. The building, designed by architect Melvin A. Rojko, was constructed in 1962 and opened in 1963. There used to be four drive-in teller windows positioned around the circumference of the bank, much like a drive-in restaurant.
