"iPhoneography" and New Years Resolutions

Well the first post of the new year is going to be about photography using the iPhone, nifty. Anyway the images here are all done with the the iPhone 4s and honestly it is a solid device. As a camera it is piss poor in a lot of situations but it can get the job done. One of the nice things about it are the stupid filter effects you can add like in all the these images.
It is hard trying to be positive about something I don't really care about. The iPhone is a great phone but a mediocre camera at best it has a ton of limitations but is discrete enough where people have no idea what the fuck you are doing since so many games and things are done on the device. There are neat things like lenses you can get for the iPhone but they look dumb as hell and really if you are going to put lenses on your phone just buy any compact system camera. Keep in mind the camera is made for small media viewing, like the phone screen or a 1080p computer screen. It isn't a device made for print in mind. It is true you can print small images with it but they still aren't to the quality of a crappy 80 dollar camera.

Also these images were taken within the last year as well. I am working on some new stuff at the moment but I wanted to update with and tell everyone that can read my new years resolutions for this blog. I am going to update twice a month. I am going to attempt for once a week like I had in the first year of the blog but we will see. When the blog was born I had no real responsibilities until I got into school then from there it was work almost full time with school almost full time and it just kept stacking where I had no real time for myself. Thankfully since my move I don't have to work as hard anymore and can focus more on school and editing so everything should move at a much faster pace in a more positive direction for my work as a whole. Hopefully this will provide with some really cool stuff and I will also be doing lighting diagrams as well on the blog as well for some of my studio or location lighting stuff.

Also I have recently purchased an infrared filter to use along side the photoshop tutorial I been working on for ages now. If everything goes well I will have a tutorial for the effect, images of the actual effect and a review of just the filter for the effect. The images I will use will most likely be from my buddy Miles Nitz. For what the real film looks like in comparison to the digital effects that are available now.

Anyway Happy New Year!
