\"image\"<\/a><\/p>\n

As an experiment I did not bring my laptop on this short business trip to Portland Oregon and back. Just my Xoom tablet, and a EyeFi SD card for the camera. With the EyeFi card I can transfer images wirelessly from the camera to the Xoom. I can do light processing on the tablet with apps like PicSay Pro and PhotoEnhanse…neither of which are Lightroom by a long stretch but which are surprisingly capable editors on the Android platform. PicSay’s only major limitation, in fact, is that it can not yet save full resolution files. PhotoEnhanse does save full res but it is a one trick pony…doing a tone mapping and blackpoint adjustment to stretch dynamic range.<\/p>\n

I am also writing and posting this from the Xoom using the Android WordPress app, Quickpic, and Google+ and Hootsuite for Android.<\/p>\n

Okay so the image already. I had an unexpected 3 hour layover in Phoenix on my way to Portland and I could not resist playing with the sunset out the window of the terminal. The Phoenix skyline makes an interesting backdrop and there are interesting ray patterns in the dark clouds. I placed the setting sun right behind the tail of an airplane, which also produced an interesting effect.<\/p>\n
