Photos

When I tap on the Photos button on the main Google+ app screen, I am presented with four thumbnails--From your circles, Photos of you, Your albums, and From your phone. Each one displays a slideshow of the available photos from the category.

At the upper right of the Photos screen there are also two icons, but these two icons are the two that appear at the bottom of the Places check-in or Google+ post entry screens. I can tap to take a new photo, or tap to add a photo from my iPhone or iPad.

I tapped on the "From your circles" thumbnail, and it opened up a screen with a bunch of smaller thumbnails of the photos that have been shared by various people within my Circles. Beneath each one is a little speech bubble square with a number next to it indicating how many comments have been left on that photo. This isn't my preferred method of finding photos from my Circles, but it is sort of interesting to be able to quickly identify which photos are generating the most discussion and jump in if I want.
