About a month into owning my first iPhone and I’m already sold on this thing as the future of  photography. I know I’m years late to the party on this, but it really is remarkable. It makes me not want to shoot my DSLR or even my point and shoot because it erases the entire hassle process of transferring files and working on them whilst grounded at a computer. Now I have a touch-screen (!) editing device that is not only also a photo-taking device, but is also portable which has equated to many photo-editing sessions when I have free time on the bus – and I can upload those photos onto the net before I get home. When iPad apps for photography become properly established, I hope they can edit RAW photos from my DSLR so I can ditch the computer altogether. Traveling and editing photos in my lap on a relatively inexpensive touch-screen device with an IPS screen? Perfect.

Here’s an iphone photo taken from my residence at UBC. Have less than two weeks left at this spot before moving to Main st with Flash-hater, Andy Chung. Will miss this view! But I’m super stoked to soon be living at the best location ever – two blocks from Congee Noodle House.

This photo was stitched together using the incredible Autostitch Panorama app which is currently $1.99 and was developed right here in Vancouver. After putting it together, it was edited with Millcolour which is a free app that is surprisingly good and you should definitely hit up if you want a good free iphonetography app. Have been pretty addicted to the photographic potential of the iPhone so look for more app ‘reviews’ soon! PS: if you haven’t seen the work of Nick Maggio, definitely check it out. All shot an iphone and way too good. Love this photo of his. Blahh!

Slammed with studying for end-of-term exams, really looking forward to them being done in ten days so I can get back to photography and editing lots of backlogged photographs. Have much planned.
