Tips and observations

Camera choice

Sony DSC-W830 (2015-Jan 2018)

• A small, relatively inexpensive camera (sub $100) is more subtle and portable.
• A large, expensive, and bulky camera probably takes much better quality images and does it more consistently. I wouldn't know; I don't have one.
• My camera hates artificial light, natural light, and nighttime. That's why many pictures I take are on gloomy and/or rainy days.

Sony DSC-RX100 (2018-present)

• Compared to the old camera, it is cheating!

Taking shots from vehicles

• Taking pictures in a vehicle (car, bus, etc...) is more convenient insofar as you can cover more ground and see more sights. Particularly if taking pictures of buses.
  • Also, it's the only way to take pictures on highways. Unless you're that daring...
• As far is picture quality, it is really hit or miss by a mile, but there are occasional gems (see sides).
• If you can, spray (clean) the windshield and open the window.
  • But you can't clean bus or train windows.
• Windows reflect their surroundings. So if you take a picture through a window, you or what ever is around you may (will) end up in the shot.
• Taking pictures in a vehicle pretty much eliminates the chance of confrontation (by police, confused bus drivers, etc...)

They are call boxes.
