... you have to soak your cannellinis. and before you soak, spread them out and remove any stones. if you think of it, take a photo. seriously.

My 35mm camera has been unused for at least ten years, and i haven’t joined the DSLR age just yet. I miss the smell of darkroom chemicals, dodging, burning in.

OTOH, I carry a camera everywhere I go. Well, it’s really an iPhone. I think of it as a phone, a hand-held computer. Rarely as a camera. But I came across a portfolio of iPhone photography recently, so I’ll have to focus a bit more. Focus, get it? Oh yeah, can’t really focus the camera. But it can handle a bit of onboard processing.

So here’s a photo of the daisies currently abloom in my yard. Surreal cool…

bblurred. what’s that all about? while i miss the smell of the darkroom (it’s been years) and covet the right dslr, my main, only camera these days is an iphone. the photo quality is not high, you have to be a little inventive.

awhile ago i snapped the button (no tactile sensation!) while my index finger was just under the lens. the image was chopped off, blurry, and, voila, an idea was born: see if we can intentionally mess up the image and end up with something approaching art.

so, we have the bblurred series on flickr. only eleven images so far including this one, but i’ll keep adding as i go.
