Hello Sue // Hello iPhone

I finally broke down + got an iPhone. I know, I know! I can't even tell you how happy I am to have this fantastic gadget in my hot little hands. My mind is blown every time I use it + often ask myself, Did I really just make that happen using my finger? It's absolutely magical!

I think my favorite part is the camera. It's so clear + can actually create quite a bit of depth. Once again, I often ask myself, Did I really just take that photo with this phone? Crazy! Anyway, thanks to Elsie, I've learned about some super fun photo apps out there to create really neat shots. There are lots of them to experiment with! Here are some photos I've snapped using the Instagram app. The Earlybird is my favorite filter!

I'm still learning, but so far so good. My only regret is waiting this long! Do you have a favorite app or trick you'd like to share? I'd love to hear about it!

Wow...I'm a photographer and when i first looked at your collage I thought it was beautiful. I'm amazed you can do that with an iPhone. might have to get me one too. Love your shop and handmade goodies. I check on them regularly. keep up the creative energy :)

Iphones are truly glorious. My favorite apps beside the photography ones are iGGression (only because its hilarious and free) and The American LIfe app. For only a couple bucks you can get the entire archive of This American Life. Its incredible. And of course there is Scrabble which I am fully addicted to.

I love my iPad and I was a little skeptical about it before I got it. But the other day during an earthquake, I live in Japan, after my kids the first thing I grabbed to throw under the table was my iPad. My favorite aps are: iAWriter, Vellum, Bloom, and Voice Recorder. Enjoy!

@maidinlowell just RTed your sweet Turnip photo and I found my way here. All I have is the iTouch (no phone) but I can get all the apps. I too use Instagram all the time, (it's the best for sharing photos) but I discovered "PaperCamera" last week and between the two, I'm ignoring all the others I'd been playing with.
