On the Bus
Ran across this while on a bike ride this weekend. All shots taken, edited, uploaded and posted with iPhone.











Used an app called Tiny Planet that's used to make circular panoramas on the last two shots above.

Good job with your iPhone...

2. I'm a fan
Edited on Mon Aug-22-11 04:20 PM by Stevenmarc
Of street art, I've been in a couple of group shows with a few and I was pleasently surprised when I saw a piece on the bus by someone that I knew.

I find that even when I'm out shooting with the big boy camera I'm always shooting with the iPhone too. As Chase Jarvis says, the best camera is the one that's with you, and that day I was traveling light.

4. I heart urban art
Some people find it to be an "eye sore". I find it to be a wonderful artistic form of communication. What you do with an Iphone is incredible. Have you ever considered some of the Lomography compacts? I have a Diana Mini that I really like. (plus a few others) Walgreens develops my negs for about $3 a roll and then I just scan them.

6. I have a Blackbird Fly
That I take out occasionally, I have a guy who I think has been around since Deguerre who does my developing and then I scan it.

Here's a couple I took on seriously overcast day after the rain using Neopan 1600, I was in the mood for grain like a gravel driveway.

Love this shot because it's hard to tell if it was taken in 2010 or 1964



The back if a friend who was also shooting with a Blackbird Fly that day.

8. The photo does have a great 'classic' look to it
Timeless.

Don't have a Blackbird but it looks like a great little camera. It's nice you have someone who can develop your B&W. Lab processing just doesn't work that great with B&W. Always get a slight color cast to it. Best if done by hand.

5. I had to look at these three slow motion times to be able to
tell you how much I like them. A fabulous gift you are sharing here. I go nuts over the art of the "piecers" (if they are still called that) Magnificent work, and your photos are, too!!!

7. I know that the School Board is PO'd,
But in any language, "That Is Art"! Great find and really good work... My next trip to Tahiti will be expressly for the Graffiti art. Our youngsters are beginning to develop their own and I want to document it before the neighborhood watch decides to paint over it.

Bravo Zulu!
