I’m still getting the hang of using clip-on lens for my iPhone. This one picture was taken using a macro lens from CamRah. I figured since Alexander Hamilton is suddenly in the public’s eye once again, why not take a macro picture of a ten dollar bill? It’s not great, blurry at the bottom, but I do like how the macro lens provides detail you simply could not get before in an iPhone lens. The little red and blue threads that qualify our paper money as cloth finally stand out to the point where I can see them.

Another shot from my trip down to New York. This one taken with Hipstamatic. Like I said yesterday, really fantastic skies in the way down. -
Went to visit some family this weekend in New York. The skies on the way down were nothing short of awesome. This is a view of Manhattan from the Whitestone Bridge.Taken with PureShot and cropped and tuned slightly with Snapseed.

I’ve lived in New England now for about 18 years. The last few winters have been exceedingly snowy. I can say pretty much that I’m no longer a big fan of the white stuff. This winter we haven’t had much yet. But the snow didn’t really start last winter until late January, so I’m not holding out hope against the snow. Not yet. -
When I first started getting interested in the idea of iphoneography, that is, photography taken and edited solely with iPhone apps, the toy camera app Hipstamatic came up A LOT. I’m a sucker for that kind of stuff, so I downloaded Hipstamatic and have bought some of its “lens” and “films”.I find Hipstamatic frustrating at times. There are so many combinations of lens and films you can use, it’s hard to know which one is the best for the picture you’re trying to take. Either you decide on a combination and the picture doesn’t come out the way you hoped, or you figure out the right combination just in time for the subject of the photo to have moved on.
But once in a while, it just works. Example: see the sunset photo above.

Last night’s dinner. I do love a good burger, and Five Guys always delivers.Shot using Hipstamatic, using the Rudolph lens and the Daydream film.

This is my town’s common this morning after last night’s light snow.Taken with PureShot.

Today’s photo was a tough choice. I had another picture I took this morning that I wanted to post, but, in honor of the first real snowfall in the Northeast tonight, I though this one would be a better fit. It’s kind of a blurry mess, as night photography with an iPhone is a skill I have yet to master, but whatever. I like it. So there.Taken with PureShot, cropped in Snapseed, converted to black and white with Black Cam.

I love taking black and white pictures. Sometimes they work sometimes they don’t, but the result is always interesting to me.Taken with Black Cam.
