In 2014, I could not afford a nice Android phone with an amazing camera feature.
I got an Oppo Neo 7 which was about PHP 8,000. I could not afford a phone over PHP 10,000 or over $200.
The fact that Android phones got downgraded easily.
And you have no choice but to upgrade to a better phone in the next few years.
But I already had a DSLR camera and an iPad mini.
I was being practical that it wasn't the best time to buy a phone with a beautiful camera feature.
I never regretted it.
My goal of using my phone was for immediate calls and using the phone as a portable Wi-Fi with a 3G connection.
Yeah right, my old phone never had a 4G capability.
Anyway, even though my phone never had high-quality photos, I still tried to take a few photos using panoramic shots.
Panorama 1 - Island Hopping in El Nido
The boat made a stop in one of the islands. I got the chance to go down first and took the chance to take a panoramic view from where I stood.
Panorama 2 - A Resort in Puerto Princesa
After a long trip from El Nido, we stayed in a resort in Puerto Princesa. Outside of the room is the view of the swimming pool.
Panorama 3 - Waiting for a ferry ride in Central, Hong Kong
We were going to our next destination around Hong Kong and we tried the ferry ride in Hong Kong. The ferry ride was about 2 Hong Kong Dollars if my memory was right.
Panorama 4 - The view from The Peak in Hong Kong
Part of our itinerary is to visit The Peak in Hong Kong. You can see the 360 degree view of Hong Kong from this place. There were several things to do here as well.
Panorama 5 - The Graduation Ceremony at CIT-University
Even though this photo was blurred but I still keep this in my photo memories because this was the only photo I got from where I was seating. My mom and I never had professionally taken photos during my graduation. My mother never had a camera phone and she never knew how to use my DSLR camera. I never brought my DSLR camera because nobody could take photos of us.
Anyway, even though these photos are of low quality but the good memories are still in my heart.
