I Blame My iPhone

I have fallen into a slump lately with my blog posting and photography...I'm not sure why. I've been feeling restless and unfocused - I hope it passes soon! I've taken very few photographs with my fancy camera; however, thank goodness I have my iphone because at least it still provides me with small bits of creativity throughout the day. And now that I think about it, maybe that's part of the problem? *epiphany* I'm having so much fun with my iphone and apps that I'm not taking the time to go out with my "real" camera. Hmmmm, this is interesting to think about...lol. I thought I'd share some of my recent iphone photos, and I'm also linking up with Kim's Texture Tuesday. This week's prompt is "anything goes", so it worked out well for me. Thanks to all of you who stop by, and I hope you're having a good week.

As an added note, the kaleidoscope effect photo was achieved using the "icoloroma s" app, which I am loving! This was the escher effect (and most of the effects have adjustment sliders so you can increase/decrease the impact). The images with typed words were achieved with the "Phonto" app. The September bubble image was achieved with the "Bubble Frame" app.

  1. It shows that you can take also good pictures with your iphone.

  2. Gorgeous images! Maybe the iphone is just as much a "real" camera as any other camera?! I don't know! But it sure is fun to play with!

  4. I am feeling just like you right now Sherri. I haven't posted anything of real purpose on either of my blogs in a couple of weeks, very rare for me. I think I have been concentrating hard on learning Lightroom and I have been trying to go out and take pictures to work on editing. By the time I am done with all that I am exhausted!

  5. It could be the time of year too. . . we've been back to school for the amount of time it takes to be exhausted by the schedule. And for me, I've been sick, haven't even instagramed lately either, but I have missed your posts and poems!! xo

  9. So many gorgeous photos!!! I love using the camera on my iPhone! It's nice to not always feel like you need to take the big camera everywhere.

  10. Sometimes, snapping instead of efforting can make for great results and get the fun back into creativity, these shots above are all interesting, well composed and I especially love the cutie with his red kong toy :)

  11. These are wonderful! You are really enjoying your iPhone. I'm afraid that is what will happen when I get mine -- that I won't use my "good" camera as much.

  12. wonderful, each and all. I think that BEing creative requires times of distance and NOT knowing exactly what's up or next... seems to me you've found something to stretch some new muscles and play differently. I am sure if I had an iPhone and all the fun things to play with on it I'd get lost in it, too. this happens to me regularly, actually, so it is good to hear and see another's perspective of it.
