iheart iphone

Hahaha! I'm so unique with my title. Sometimes, you got to use what you have and all I had was my iPhone to capture the most amazing sky...take that Hawaiian sunsets!

As a side note...I did NOT use Photoshop.

Just Because...

Some of the pictures either I just absolutely love, feel God's awesome power, crack up about or am just plain creeped out by...so enjoy!


This poor guy...
had to do this to get any food around here...

This went from bad...
too worse (gross, doesn't he look like an inmate from Alcatraz in the early '70's having his picture taken for a documentary on high-security prisons?)

Driving to Houston...

Branching Out

I thought I'd share with you a picture that I recently captured when the sun was setting and the sky was singing harmoniously with it. By the way, it's nice to know that even when I live in the suburbs, I can still witness the unfolding of a beautiful sunset and take pictures like these in my own backyard.

I took several pictures of it a few weeks ago but knew that this one would be my favorite. This, by the way, is SOOC (straight-out-of-camera) so nothing has been touched from this original.

But since I don't know how to let things be, I decided to play with it on my photo-editing software and so now watch as the madness unfolds:

Effect used: High Contrast (I like the psychedelic effect.)

Effect used: Preset called Toxic (Garbage Pail Kids, all the way!)

Effect used: Cross-Process

Effect used: Cyanotype (FYI - this was how blueprints were originally created)

Effect used: Infrared Film (I love the "fogginess" and eerie Sleepy Hollow look it has)

Effect used: Negative (kind of makes me think of winter - maybe it's just because of the white tree?)

My favorites are definitely the Cross-Process picture and the Infrared Film. What is your favorite? Leave me a comment and you can win my thanks and gratitude!
