Day 4 of the 30 Days of Gratitude Challenge: Something in the room you’re in. Answer: Grampa’s chapel. Shown above, it was made by my Grampa more than 100 years ago, it’s one of the most precious things that I own, and I’m pretty sure I share it on this blog every year at Christmastime. But unless I want…

A Different Look
My neighbors’ garden is starting to fade, but it doesn’t make for any less interesting and beautiful blooms. Here are a few of my favorites through the lens of the Hipstamatic. I kept thinking that this last bloom looked like Chihuly glass. Then I did a google image search and found this image (source of…
Magic
I pulled a photo of my flowers into the Hipstamatic app and this is what happened. I am geeking out.

Same hyacinth, three different lenses and films on the Hipstamatic. I am totally convinced that iPhoneography is the coolest thing ever. And by the way, this flower is making my office smell so beautiful.
Images
Today I ordered close to two dozen prints at the lab and not a single one came from a digital or film camera. Instead, every photo was taken with the Hipstamatic application on my iPhone. Six different lenses, eight types of film, and six flash options are available with the swipe of a finger across…
