OK you think you’re a good photographer? Show me what you can do with a cellphone.

I like that and may borrow it should the occasion arise.

Maybe you can help me understand where the bottleneck is in the chain of events:

For me, if it doesn't unobtrusively fit in my pocket then it doesn't get taken with me. I still have an actual camera somewhere that has the edge over my phone for quality but I've not touched it for years now. Not even sure where it is.

And of course, once I have a multipurpose computer in my pocket that takes reasonable pictures then a DSLR becomes largely redundant for me.

The things I miss about DSLRs are the viewfinder

Me too. A view finder changes how I take pictures. A phone can be surreptitious, a camera with a lens and viewfinder only does one thing, I'm more assertive with one and the pictures reflect that I think.

Scorching of grassland.

I'm taking bets on how long before a hose pipe ban is introduced in the country.

Although I didn’t know it at the time, the Portland Headlight in Maine is the most photographed lighthouse in America...and I’m so happy with this shot that it’s now my permanent wallpaper. Snapseed

Nice photo, but so sad. Droughts can be devastating. We have many dry reservoirs out west.

Yes, we’re expecting one soon. No rain forecast for the next two weeks!
