iPhone 4 Makes a Lot of Cameras Superfluous

Ever since we purchased the iPhone 4 with its 5-megapixel camera, we’ve been tempted to get rid of our Nikon DSLR, Canon S80 and a bunch of other cameras.
You see, the iPhone 4 takes pictures so good that unless you are a professional shooting models or other such high-end stuff you don’t any other cameras in your Lowepro bag.
Here are a couple of photos that we recently shot in New York City with the iPhone 4. By the way, the below photos are cropped and/or reduced in size.

One of the unmistakable signs of a declining order is the preoccupation of its people with trivia.
The fixation and endless gawking on the tawdry, on flashing lights, on the frivolous antics of a teen pop star, on the latest mobile phone, on the new Barbie doll or the Christmas Tree at the Rockefeller Center.
We’ve never seen such crowds in the U.S. as we did the other day at the Rockefeller Center in NYC.
The crowd comprised of the young, not-so-young and the old was so thick that it was literally push and shove to make your way in or out.
And all just to ogle at a tree with a million lights!

If you schmucks think Colombia only means the White Powder that gets you sky high, think again.
For there’s Cartagena, the beach city on the Caribbean Sea in the northern part of the country.

With a population of a million, the city is a major tourist attraction.
The old walled city and fortress were declared as an UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1984.
Nobel author Gabriel Garcia Marquez’ phantasmagorical romance Love in the Time of Cholera is supposedly set in Cartagena although the book itself never mentions it. By the way, the movie based on Marquez’ book was filmed in the city.
