Lytro camera

I have been taking pictures consistently {OK, obsessively} for over 10 years.  It is no coincidence that my oldest child is 11. It started with a small point and shoot.  A few years ago I progressed to a SLR.  Up until last week I was using a combination of SLR and my iPhone. Last week [...]
