A10 My favorite photo isn’t my photo as you can tell by the watermark. But if you want to play Where's Waldo, I think that's me on the far left in the orange hat. That’s the Big Boy steam engine on the right. #DigiBlogChat
A9 Googled HDR and read that my phone has it, but it's not worth finding because those are for tranquil landscapes, and action is my game -- usually ending at the wire in a photo finish. #DgiBlogChat
A8 My phone has a flash? No worries. If I need to light an area, I support small business and outsource to a local vendor. #DigiBlogChat
A7 My Android has pro tools, but I don't want to mess with them. They could ruin my amateur status at the next Photography Olympics. Those East German judges are tough enough. #DigiBlogChat
A5 My why is something that interests me with a bonus being my wife likes pictures of flowers. Then it was a matter of getting down to the lillies' eye level. #DigiBlogChat
A4 A tight crop is usually the best way to deal with backgrounds such as tent canvas in this shot. Of course, it helps if the tent isn't as full as it got to be later. #DigiBlogChat
A3 This is fairly simple, taken Saturday evening. The only alterations are to crop for close-up and going by the android's offer to increase resolution. Note the ball a few feet from the pitcher's hand. #DigiBlogChat
A2 In a photojournalism class many moons ago we were taught to get to a subject's eye level, which is the most interesting angle -- especially if the subject is given an eye test. #DigiBlogChat
A1 I try to remember to hit color balance for photos. That seems to make things pop out. #DigiBlogChat

A3 Many owners fear higher prices will drive customers away. They compare themselves to competitors instead of communicating value. Pricing should reflect expertise, results and service—not just the hours worked or the lowest bidder. #BizapaloozaChat
