What A Wonderful World

As the saying goes, the best camera is the camera you have with you. Often times, it's the much maligned mobile phone camera. But have you captured an image so impressive, it looks like it was taken with a much better spec'ed camera? Show us an image so good, others would need to look at the EXIF to tell it was done with a mobile phone camera.

This is not a black and white photo challenge in the usual sense. I'm looking for portraits of animals with both black and white colors over a significant portion of their exterior. Other colors are allowed, as long as they are a distant third, percentage wise. So... Orcas are in, polar bears are out. Penguins are in, ravens are out. Giant pandas are in ... and so on.

Cityscape images taken with a fish eye lens. Non-circular FE images only (I will have a challenge for circular FE images later).

Landscape images taken with a fish eye lens. Non-circular FE images only (I will have a challenge for circular FE images later).

Images taken with a fish eye lens. Portraits of humans or animals. Non-circular FE images only (I will have a challenge for circular FE images later).

Show us images of vehicle light trails. Headlights, taillights, side markers, turn signals, red, amber, yellow, white, blue, anything goes. As long as they are emited by any vehicle; planes, trains, automobiles, and others.

Do you head towards the park entrance/exit after the obligatory sunset shots? Or do you stick around? Show us your best picture taken within a national park boundary after dark. *NO STAR TRAILS, please. I would like to have a separate challenge just for star trails.
