When I was casting around for a subject for today's Mosaic Monday, I came across all the iPhone photos that I had saved on my computer's hard drive when I thought that my camera phone was no longer working. I thought I might share a few of them here today.
They say that the best camera a photographer can have is the one she has with her. More often than not, that will be the camera on your phone. My husband and I try to walk most mornings before he leaves for work, and I love to capture my favorite subjects -- sunrise or fog -- with my iPhone. Here are a few from earlier in the year.
Editing photos on your phone is easy and fun. There are a few photo apps that I find myself coming back to again and again -- Snapseed, Camera+ and VSCOcam are some of my absolute favorites. If you enjoy working with textures, check out DistressedFX and Mextures. For typography fans, Typic+ is a fabulous app, as well as Over.
If you'd like to check out my iphoneography, follow me on Instagram or check out my VSCO grid. If you are on Instagram, I'd love to follow you -- just leave your IG name in the comments. :)

I think early morning photos are beautiful - it's about the soft light at that time of day.
ReplyDeleteThese are lovely Mary.
I have a Samsung Smartphone and it takes great photos and has good photo editing apps too!
As always, many thank yous for hosting this party Mary.

So beautiful photos! I love these foggy images..
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful photos...no matter what type of camera...iphone or whatever. Thanks for sharing them :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos, and to think they were taken with a phone. Hubby and I must be one of the last people without an iPhone yet...maybe one day. For now we just use an old type for emergencies and I usually have my iPad in my purse.
ReplyDeleteMary these are all so beautiful. . and so well done. I love your Iphoneography here and on Instg. Gorgeous as always. Your links I have but not all . Thanks so much for adding them here. The distressed is new to me. Happy December dear friend.
ReplyDeleteLove seeing your walks through your iPhone photos. Thanks for hosting Mary.

Can I give you a wow? With a capital W? Because I just did.
ReplyDeleteWhen I see your iPhone imagery, I want to trade in my Samsung.
I have learned to edit pics on my cell phone and it is indeed both fun and interesting! Wishing you a wonderful week!
ReplyDeleteThese are all so lovely...my favorite is the second one...just breathtaking
ReplyDeleteSecond from top get my vote also. Great shots.
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting!!!
Have a great week.
Oh Mary, I only have a basic phone, but you are making me want to go and buy an iphone! fabulous photos. And you are right, the best camera is the one you have with you. Have a lovely week.
ReplyDeleteI think I need an upgrade! Gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting.
Hugs,

Hi Mary. Lovely images. Those iphones are wonderful aren't they? What ever did I do before I got one...lol. I'm so glad you put your link to Instagram up. I'm always forgetting to look if my friends have it or not and search for them. :)
ReplyDeleteHi again Mary...it's been a while since I've visited and I realize I haven't yet included my mosaic. That's because I can't find the one I had planned to use. I'll keep looking. Your photos are just lovely. And I agree with that saying ...any picture is a memory...
ReplyDeleteMary I always enjoy your early morning photos when I see them on facebook. You walk in a very beautiful place!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos! The fog looks kinda mysterious...Christine
ReplyDeleteLovely shots, Mary. I haven't progressed beyond taking photos with my camera - editing and textures will require a week's holiday at home, I think!
ReplyDeleteYour morning photo's are lovely.
ReplyDeleteDenise
Love morning walks! Thx for hosting :)
ReplyDeletethe foggy images are ethereal and beautiful. I do instagram but wish I could do it on my computer as I just don't enjoy using my phone for photography as much as I do my camera.
ReplyDeletePretty pix are always worth saving and sharing!...:)JP
ReplyDeleteGreat photos. Thanks for hosting.

This makes me want to work on my iPhone photos! I usually go to the Photoshop app…when I have time. But oh how I love Instagram. Have followed you. I'm at @aneyefordetail if you want to take a look. I must remember, one of these days, to post a collage on a Sunday evening!
ReplyDeleteSo...here is what I have to say about this...you are a genius, these are great Mary...as for me...I had to ask my daughter if my cell phone takes photos...YES, OF COURSE it does she says...so, guess I will have to learn how and begin snapping...that is IF, I remember to place said phone on the charger ;)
ReplyDeleteWow those are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThese are lovely! I am very impressed. I cannot take a decent picture with my phone to save my soul. Thanks for hosting each week!
