Finally made it to the Pacific. Took a picture of my girlfriend at the beach. I am happy. 35 mm film.
This is an amazing photograph! I’ve never been to a beach where the actual beach can be so long until the water’s edge.
Kevin Russ, Traveling And Paying The Bills With iPhoneography
A couple years ago I discovered Kevin Russ on Flickr. I love his portrait work and his use of natural light. I hadn’t seen much from him on Flickr in a while and just the other day I found out why. Kevin has been traveling the United States, shooting landscape photography with just his iPhone, and living off the print sales.
I must admit I am jealous of Kevin’s current life. He hops in his car, looks at a map of places he wants to go in this country, and takes off. When he gets there he photographs what he sees, predominantly landscapes and nature, and most of which he shoots on his iPhone. He is a contributor to iStockphoto as well as sells his prints on his Society 6 page. Check out his work, in my opinion it is absolutely beautiful. He also has a new flickr for his mobile photos, check it out! I think his work is a prime example of the fact that it isn’t about the camera, it’s about the photographer.
I was kind of hoping it was all in the camera, and that my problem was that I had a shit camera. Oh well.
Can’t believe he took these on his phone.
This was done with a stubby holder on the end of my camera lens.

“BUT WHY IS THE RUM GONE?”
I was listening to ‘Lover of the Light’ by Mumford and Sons when I came across this photo. Started imagining these women dancing to the song. Very beautiful imagery.

Need some quick lighting for a shoot? Though not the best option for precision, headlights on a car can sometimes do the trick. Brendon Burton used them beautifully in the self portrait above!

This is really cool. I imagine dust though instead of snow.
Things I need to get off my chest: Part 2
98% of the time, I am the only person in my group of friends who brings a camera and takes pictures. Parties, dinners, coffee… I’m there with either my dslr or my iphone taking happy snaps.
And some friends hate it.
“Don’t take pictures Peta, for Christ’s sake! Get the camera out of my face!”
Good luck trying to reminisce on past memories without photos assholes.
Or alternatively, I am always the one behind the camera. Hardly ever in front of it. Friends are less likely to pick up the camera because that is what I am for.
Looking through all my photos on my laptop, and the fun times, the good memories, I am hardly present.
To my dear friends. I, unlike most of you, actually enjoy being photographed. I may look like shit, but I honestly don’t care. I like being in photos. Just remember that next time something great happens and we all want to remember it.
That is all.
What is it about baseball bats. Immediate badassery.
