Comparisons

One shot is from my Canon SX50, the other from my Nokia Lumia 925 ... Guesses please !

Anyone else taken similar shots with their Canon and a mobile phone ? I'd be interested in seeing if I can guess!

There are two big give-aways: aspect ratio, and file name. That being said, I like the detail and colors of the second shot more than the first. Plus, the frame includes the dirt road and red trailer which are cropped out of the first. The big straight line of the dirt road gives the second shot a whole other sense of organization the first shot misses, and is a natural guide for the eye toward the red spot it's naturally going to be attracted towards. The down side of the second shot is the gradient haloing of the sky over the foreground is noticeable, and I would guess this is an internal image-processing software artifact. Overall I'm attracted to the less color-saturated second image, as the first seems overpowering in the greens.

Thanks for your input. I think it is interesting that the phone shot ( the 2nd one as you thought ) actually does so well - I certainly like having the phone with me at all times.
