New Phone and apps to make some tomato art

ZachAttacksPHX · December 29, 2011

There was a great deal on IPhones over the holiday weekend so I've been playing with it ever since. Here is a couple pics of the Big Beef with celebrity in the background and Patio below.

Mrs. M. surprised me with a new iPhone 4S for Christmas, but the 64 gigabyte model is back ordered until 1/6 so I haven't gotten it yet. I'm glad to know the iPhone takes nice photos.

My LG EnV Touch is 4 years old and still going strong. I would have "run it into the ground" before upgrading. I'd get a Jitterbug if I could get away with it.

I have a 16 gig 4s and it's an 8 megapixel by comparison my d40 is 6 megs and l20 is 10 megs

Edit: sorry has to go pretty fast lol

There's pictures mostly from the d40 at crystal-biyu.deviantart.com/gallery
(the d40 is a digital slr a nice camera in my mind)

There's some pics from the 4s at sakura0garden.livejournal.com
(those are hosted at photobucket were directly uploaded to it from the 4s)

There may be some l20 pics on da (in the pic info it says)

With the d40 you can attach a huge 500 zoom lens (we own one) and get some distance images with the 4s I think you can only really go to a 4x zoom or so --by comparison the l20 has 3x optical 5x digital zoom

I'm fairly nikkor bias with cameras because that's what I've got lol but our cannon digital (like l20) does take some REALLY nice pictures!

I can tell you that I feel like I've been missing out all of these years since I got this phone. Everything works fast and smooth so far...no bugs! I only have the 4 that has 5mp so your pics should turn out even better since they upgraded the 4S to an 8mp camera.

Wow! So much growth in such a short time. What are you feeding those things??

ZachAttacksPHX · January 3, 2012

I mixed up compost, perlite, peat moss and some steer manure given I wasn't able to get horse or rabbit at the moment. I've just been giving them epsom salt (walgreens version $5) and some Miracle grow for tomatoes every 2 weeks or so.

I'm getting ready to start doing my own tea and a better watering way because of the amount of chlorine in it. I wonder if I could use the stuff they use for aquariums?? I used to put a couple of drops to help with that in a 55 gallon tank.

The first picture up top and the one just above are almost a month apart so I was thinking it's going a lot slower than they should be. I'm only getting 2-3 hours of direct sunlight a day and maybe another 1-2 from a polished aluminum sheet reflected light. The Big Beef is kicking some serious butt though.

42 days ago. Roma in top right was returned for a Celebrity.

All in all I'm pretty happy!

sirtanon · January 3, 2012

They're looking really happy. Good going so far!

I'm happy to see these pictures with the iPhone, but I only have the iPod Touch which is supposed to have lesser quality. Hope you don't mind if I paste a practice photo here.

What kind of tomato is that on the right?
