                         As I prepared for my O.A.T. trip to Peru and Machu Picchu in
                fall 2016, I realized that the camera on my new cell phone was of better
                quality and pixel size than my not-that-old digital camera. My cell phone
                also allowed me to easily zoom in with a quick finger swipe. … I could also
                switch to video mode quickly if an action-filled activity suddenly came
                into view or I wanted to record some audio. By turning on the geographic
                tag feature of my phone, the location of my photos was automatically
                recorded along with the photo file; that helped me remember where all
                my photos had been taken when I got back home and started to create a
                photo album of my trip.
