Like I said, yesterday ...

So, as I promised, pictures. 

First, an establishing shot, made with my phone - no enhancements or cropping - with the phone mounted on the little tripod that came with the lenses ...

Second, a shot taken from the same position, but with the 12x telephoto applied ...

The shot is untouched by any type of editor or enhancement.  As you can see, the verticals are distorted - I'm not sure what to call the distortion ... some kind of barreling, I suppose.

Soon I'll take pictures at a greater distance - just to see if the barrel effect persists.
