The Grand Union Canal at Berkhamsted

A beautifully composed photo with lots of interest.

Thank you. I wish I'd brought a (proper) camera.

That white wall would benefit from some weathering.

Yes, but (once again) not bad for a snapshot taken with a 7-year-old iPhone 8.

That was not a criticism of your photography, but of people who paint their brickwork.
It creates a nasty angle that spoils your picture.

Weathered 30%.

Still got that ugly shape. The bush needs to grow a bit.

Sorry to hear it, but that's as much information as I need.

Referring to the autumn foliage by the wall, you silly pl---er.

"Thank you. I wish I'd brought a (proper) camera."

I think your not-proper camera (phone) does the job very well.
I don't know why you complain about it, as the colours are very natural.

It produces an acceptable image when the light is flat and the subject (as in this case) fills the frame without the use of digital zoom. Modern smartphones contain three or more much higher-megapixel cameras, which in effect zoom both wider and (much) longer while retaining full image quality, and hence can be used for serious photography. Having twice in three days found myself without a camera when I needed one, for me a new iPhone would perhaps be a worthwhile investment.
