This is cool (imo) 20160929_173433-PANO_zpsi5xksn4g

That's a photo I took of the beach on Galveston Island recently. Sort of ...

I actually took several photos of the beach, then a few days later installed the Google Photos app on my phone.

The morning after I installed it, I checked my phone and found that Google Photos had taken it upon itself to create a panoramic image from my photos. It was basically like, "Hey, I made this for you, what do you think?"

affraid lovey eyes clappy

You have a very close relationship with Google and it wants to do you favours. Nice pic, looks familiar.

You know you can actually take a panoramic view photo with your iPhone though, right?

I wasn't so impressed with the ability to take a panoramic photo as I was with the app's initiative Smile

You can drive for miles in the Highlands and never see another car. Bliss.

And more southerly, the drive from Ayr through the Galloway Forest is wonderful. Much of Scotland is unspoiled.
