A while back I raved about the images i was getting with my iPhone. So I was 
disappointed when I started reviewing images from one of my longest hikes in 
Big Bend Bend National Park, through landscape that is distinctive even for Big 
Bend. The focus on almost all 265 of the images is uniformly lousy. I was 
reassured however when I checked the images from another special hike, again 
almost all taken with my iPhone. 

I use the Manual app, which enables shooting in either manual or autofocus 
mode. My guess is that I set focus to auto focus without realizing it and never 
checked throughout the hike. 

A sample image from the first hike, on the Marufo Vega trail, in the southeast 
corner of the Park.

And one from the other hike, to the South Rim of the Chisos Mountains, in the 
center of the Park.

A lesson you would think I had learned long before this. Hopefully I have been 
sufficiently reminded.
