iPhonography

Grunge Cup.

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
