I'M feeling empowered by Instagram and that may explain my addiction to the fun application right now. Without any time-consuming photo-editing, I have gorgeous Andrew-Campbell worthy pictures instantly with the app. (Or not, tell me Andrew). My only problem is that Instagram doesn't seem to be stable on my Android phone. The app has random shut-down fits and it's really frustrating especially when I see something nice while on the go. Poofff! There goes the desert full of aimless camels! I have no problems with the app on my i-Phone though - it's perfect except that the 3GS model doesn't allow for good quality photos in the dark. Oh well. Here are more photos.

Although I don't deserve the implicit praise, I shall accept a very pleasing comparison to you! These are really good (he says trying to keep the surprise and condecension out of his typing) but you really need to get a real camera...you know, one that doesn't 'ring'. I envy you your opportunities Jayagandi. How's life in Qatar?
ReplyDeleteWow great job, that app sure does the trick to make them even better.
ReplyDeleteThose jelly shots sound awesome and look it too! I love all of these photos of life in Qatar and the fact that they're taken on Instagram just makes things even better, Instagram makes everything look beautiful, it's a shame about the crashing though!
ReplyDeletelooks like fun!! jello shots are dangerous! i have read on some blogs that blogger is limiting the free picture space, and bloggers now have to pay to put photos on their blogs..
ReplyDeleteYou really captured the essence of those jello shots!
ReplyDeleteIs vodka legal in Qatar, Jaya? I wouldn't want anyone to get flogged for flouting the local prohibition. But I'm glad to see that bush is legal.
ReplyDeleteThose roses are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteAnd Oh Em Gee... what is up with the girl in that car... disturbing!
nice jello
ReplyDeleteI love roses. Unfortunately no one gives them to me. I always need to buy my own private bunch. :(
ReplyDeleteP.S. Some parents should be locked up.
The last photo reminds me of life in the 60's, before we had seatbelts. But we know better now - or should!
ReplyDeleteLove your pics!! I think I have a bit of an histogram addict too!! Xxx
ReplyDeleteP.S. Just for your information... it's weekend. And mine is a four-day one. Jealous yet? :D

I still don't get the appeal of Instagram. Maybe it's because I don't use it myself.
