It's Hiptastic!

During my big photographic slump earlier this year, I put away my SLRs and DSLR and only took my phone out with me. The camera on my aging iPhone 6S+ is not great, but the Hipstamatic application adds so many adjustments and effects to pictures that you can't really tell that the lens is not the best anymore.

Here is a selection of pictures I made while leaving my main cameras at home.

The obligatory kitty-cat

Tarp-covered tubs down by the harbour. For nets, I think, not fish.

Foggy morning at the harbour

I often visit this convenience store when I'm in the neighbourhood because the picnic tables are almost always unoccupied. And when they are (by bloody smokers), or when the weather isn't good, I can sit at a table inside the store.

Field before ploughing, Yongchon Village

A scene near my bus stop. I have many photos of this tin roof and antenna, but this one has the wildest colours.

Pine tree shadow by the harbour.

A hedge bush near some apartments.
After looking at these photos, I feel like going out with the Hipstamatic application again. It's great fun.

  1. Still vivid and well composed - Hilltop & Foggy Morning would make great paintings!
