Red, White & You



Went to a Fourth of July BBQ bash at Edmund Fountain's. Had some fabulous brisket, slow-smoked with Texas love. Ate some awesome strawberry cake with strawberry frosting in honor of Kainaz Amaria's birthday. Took advantage of a beautiful backlit flag hanging to snap some iPhone portraits of folks in honor of America's birthday. Rode bikes down to the Bay to watch the sky explode with color.

Have I mentioned how much I love the Camerabag iPhone app? The "helga" filter is modeled after my favorite cheap, plastic toy camera - the Holga. It crops the photo into a square, bumps the contrast a little and vignettes it. And it's what I use for 99% of the stuff I shoot with my iPhone.

In fact, I just finished my first iPhone project for the paper. It runs Wednesday or Thursday of this week. I'll post it when it's published.
