CameraBag



Photos of my fireplace, settings "1962," "Holga," and "Lolo" respectively.

CameraBag is a beautiful application that lets you mimic the unique characteristics of certain cameras and lens on your iPhone. You can take photos on a certain setting (ie. "Fisheye") or you can take existing photos from your library and tweak them. The best part is that the application works with the weakness of the iPhone's camera, since graininess and weird color saturation are part of an old photo's charm.

Andrew Wyeth


South Cushing, 1955

Andrew Wyeth died last week, and as much as I love Christina's World, I can't resist a horse in a field.

Spoonflower

photos from spoonflower.com

Spoonflower allows you to print custom fabrics, at a very reasonable $18/yard. Totally brilliant and I'm desperate to start making my own.
