I don’t have hobbies. I have obsessions.
People in my photography club thought i was weak, a slacker, lazy, perhaps even stupid, because my camera of choice is my iPhone 4s. Well, they’re not laughing now. Last night we were treated to a slide show and presentation by the fabulous Suzanne White of the Chatham Camera Club, a professional artist who is an accomplished iPhonographer.
Well, well, well. There are even books about this subject, it turns out, and what started as a cult, a niche, is pretty well mainstream. Who still takes pictures using a CAMERA! Downloads images onto a computer to edit! How regressive!
I did the above image using Iris Photo Suite, from a snapshot of the coffee cup in front of me. Simple, and fabulously fun. I can feel wellsprings of creativity that were bottled up for YEARS.
More pictures of mine will follow. In the meantime, you can see Suzanne’s photos here: http://flic.kr/ps/wXDXW
