Cool images, taken with your cell phone #65

We're back with the 65th post in our special photographic-centric series where we present you with a number of awesome images taken by... well, you (and your cell phones).

So, which picture did you like most last time? The answer is Johnna Devasier's photo, taken with the HTC ThunderBolt. And a pretty well-deserved first place it is, we should say!

Of course, there are many other incredible images left to be seen. Let's continue with another set of 10 pics, each of which can easily convince even the most professionally-inclined photographer that cell phones are more than a toy in the camera department.

Please note that if your own awesome image is not included here, this doesn't mean that it won't end up on the site. We simply might not have gotten to it yet! So, we urge you to continue following us, as we'll be publishing more of these truly great photos in the following days and weeks.

PLEASE NOTE THAT WE HAVE A NEW EMAIL ADDRESS FOR YOUR SUBMISSIONS:

In order to not miss on all the glory, you also have to mention your name/nickname, as well as the phone you used to take the shots. A nice additional piece of info would be a name or a short description for the image.

With that, we now leave you with our 65th set of favorite photos...

More press images of Nokia Lumia 928 leak

For about a month-and-a-half, we have been seeing a steady stream of leaks related to the as-yet-to-be-announced Nokia Lumia 928. Now we get to see what @evleaks dubbed, “a final look” at the new Nokia.

Despite all the leaks though, there is a bit that we do not know about the device. We are highly confident that the Lumia 928 will share most of its specifications with the Lumia 920, 1280x768 4.5-inch screen, and OIS 8.7MP camera. However, the Lumia 928 will be equipped with a xenon/LED flash.

We also think the Lumia 928 will have an aluminum body and like its Lumia 920 counterpart will probably be packing 32GB of non-expandable storage. Other than that, we know what it will look like. The latest leaked image shows the standard Nokia design motif, buttons aligned down the right side of the device. The left side is clean. The speaker is completely on the back and the microphone on the front.

The profile angles of the Lumia 928 are a bit more revealing. The sides of the device are flat and defined versus the 920’s rounded sides. Even with the sharper corners, the flat sides give the 928 a bit more in common with the Lumia 822 than the other Lumia models. Using the 920’s design language, we will guess that the SIM tray is on the top along with a 3.5mm headphone jack and the bottom offers up a micro USB plug.

Rumors earlier last month were indicating a release sometime in April. Since Verizon confirmed that the Samsung Galaxy S4 is coming in May and the BlackBerry Z10 has already launched, there is not much of a window remaining for the Lumia 928 to gain traction after launch.

Honda Civic Tourer images arrive early on web

Honda provided a teaser sketch of its Civic Tourer concept wagon about a month ago (right), but today, just a couple days before its official debut at the Geneva Motor Show, we've found these official pics of the car in question from WhatCar?

The Civic Tourer concept adds a little length and height to the current Civic hatchback sold in Europe, stretching the shape every which way to make a new wagon model that will compete with cars like the new Volkswagen Golf Variant, which is also making its debut in Geneva this week.

As we mentioned when Honda released the teaser sketch last month, the European Civic is different from the Civic sold here in the US, so the production version of this concept, which should debut in the fall, will never see the inside of a dealership in the States. Do you care, or does the smaller Fit fill that role well enough for Americans?

If you want more details about the Honda Civic Tourer concept, stay tuned for our live coverage of the Geneva Motor Show this week where we'll get the skinny on this Euro-only wagon.
