A New Toy...

Mr O and I just bought  iPhones and you would think we were two kids the day after Christmas...I have been playing with camera functions of course...These photos were taken with the ShakeItPhoto app which processes your photos to look like an old time Polaroid print...it even sounds like a Polaroid camera as it "develops the film"...and yes you can shake your phone to speed the developing...

You should invite your friends over to play with your new toy! Or are you just gonna be selfish and keep it all to yourself?! LOL

I love the pics!

I have so many friends with this phone and I swear they use the camera apps more than they actually use it for making calls.....

and I love that !

ps...as far as textures and layers....sometimes a simple layer in fotoflexer.com is easier than photoshop....

what a fun "phone" ... great pictures

I was surprised to read that you could actually take the photos in that mode - no post processing. Apple stuff is so cool.

Between your iPhone and coloring dinosaurs, there is a lot of digital joy!

I have been attempting to resist an iPhone... even though we love all things Apple here. This post will make it harder!!

Wow! So much cheaper than Photoshop.

My phone is an old Nokia. Seriously. One step up from the kind with the antenna. But this makes me want a new phone! Love the photos. For some reason, I'm drawn to the feather most.

I hardly use my cell phone, so I haven't been tempted to go towards a more techie phone as yet, but my nieces and nephews all have I- Phones and I've been impressed with the quality of the photogrpahs they take with it.

This app looks like fun! Is that a photo of you Oliag? You're very pretty!
