my vintage life
Oh, I'm having fun with new iPhone. What did Steve Jobs say? They don't know they want it until they have it? yes! How did I live without it? I love taking pictures. I love good quality images. I'm always upgrading my point & shoot cameras, looking for the best of the best in the smallest package. So. Recently read a Wall Street Journal article about iPhone photo apps and was led to Camera Awesome (free app at www.awesomize.com). Had already downloaded Hipstamatic ($1.99) and although it's fun, it isn't quite what I wanted even though I didn't quite know what I wanted when I downloaded it. Now I know. Quite.
it's a nostalgia thing
I will continue to look for a Brownie Hawkeye and film (my first camera at 9 years old) but until I find it I'll explore all the amazing 21st century apps. And today, I will actually go out without my Canon (heart be still), taking only the iP. Oh my. The world is changing with or without me and I hope I can keep up.
...freedom is not the absence of commitments, but the ability to choose & commit oneself to what is best for me...
