One more image of the Beaches last Saturday, but this one created using my iPhone and the Hipstamatic app. While most of my posts will continue to be film-based, I will likely continue to post more iPhone-created images. At the end of the day, it’s about the image, not the gear.
For so many people on the subway early in the morning, their faces are their biographies, at least to my eyes.
iPhone 6+, Hipstamatic app
When I was in Banff in terms of film I was shooting black and white, not colour; the only colour images I shot were with my iPhone, so here is a comparison of almost the exact same image, one taken with my Rolleiflex, the other with my iPhone. I know colour is more popular these days, but there is still something about black and white that makes it my “mother tongue” as far as photography is concerned.
Last night I had fun doing photography at the dress rehearsal of the Alexander Showcase Theatre’s production of Lend Me a Tenor. This fast-paced comedy kept me really busy! I highly recommend this show — it is a lot of fun!
In Milton, Ontario today, meeting up for a photo walk and to record the next two episodes of the Classic Camera Revival podcast, I decided to shoot a few iPhone Hipstamatic shots as well. Happy with what I got 🙂
At least on the subway, you can close your eyes on the way to work.

I love late afternoon light, and it can often give a great look inside the bus I take home from work. This image was taken with the iPhone Hipstamatic app, then cropped a bit.

Back to the digital today, and another image where I created a faux-infrared effect in post, with Lightroom and Nik Efex.
While walking in Edinburgh, we passed by what appeared to be a playing field. After seeing hills of rock and natural ground cover, seeing this perfectly flat space covered by artificial turf seemed almost surrealistic, and an infrared treatment seemed appropriate.
