Hipstamatic Prints

What is it about Hipstamatic Prints that is just so awesome?

Probably the fact that you don't have to lug round heavy equipment everywhere you go to take an awesomely vintage effect photo plus pay the extortionate price to develop the film and print it.

Plus it makes every setting ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL.

Lens: Kaimal Mark II
Film: Kodot Verichrome

All these photos taken on my friend Rachael's iPhone 4.
I do love an old camera though. Recently bought a Nikon F301 off e-bay. I'm still looking for a lens to use with it, it was meant to be a camera to use on holiday to get some incredible film photographs, but from the looks of things this will not be happening. I will probably end up using my Dad's old Canon instead or my Diana F+.

Amazingly those last three photos at the beach - it wasn't even sunny. Well there was sun, it was just overcast with cloud practically all day but the Hipstamatic App made it look all sunny and cheery!
And the last photo of the frog, his name is Phillipe. He has a very special place in Rachael and I's heart as he is our travel companion. He has been with us to Paris, been with me to Paris again, and New York, he's also been to places within the United Kingdom on our trips. He's like the traveling gnome in Amelie, but a frog... and made of rubber...

Anyway it's late because I've been trying to do some uni work. It's so hard to sit and do it when it's summer, yet everyday I spend not doing it, I spend thinking about doing it and what I should do for it. So technically I'm doing the work in my head just not physically.
*sigh*

Night all xo

Watching The Proposal.

.L.O.V.E.

It's been a while.
But...


I love this.


Watch it.


On a completely other note. I'm trying to win a Polaroid Camera off e-bay as something special for a friend's 21st. I also want for my 21st a Diana camera. I'm all for cameras this year. I used my Dad's old Canon film camera when I was in Paris, I used a black and white film. Hopefully, because it's old it will create some nice grainy images. Still haven't developed the film yet, but now I'm home I'll get that done soon as.

It's weird being back home for the summer. I've got so used to being able to just knock on Nutter's door next door, and sit in her room and watch Friends. That now I'm home it's pretty lonely. Plus my best friends' have all got men now, it feels like we're all growing up and separating a little bit. It's strange. And a bit sad. Everyone's growing up and I feel like I should too... but where's the fun in that?

Anybody else excited for Toy Story 3?
