2 Megapixels [3] – “Ork”





Hopefully you all enjoy this iPhone picture as much as I do.  Earlier this month, I announced on my other blog – World Wide Wilson – that I will be relocating to Austin, Texas, in the middle of October for a job promotion.  My girlfriend and I have always admired the cool posters over at OrkPosters especially the Chicago one. I actually planned on buying her one of these posters for her birthday, but she beat me to it. Something by which to remember Chicago.  Thanks, Katie!  This image was edited in Adobe Photoshop Express and then touched up in Adobe Photoshop CS3. Also, it is the current lock screen background for my iPhone.


I will soon be getting a work phone as part of the job promotion – a BlackBerry Tour, which has a 3.2 MP camera.  I will be giving my iPhone to my sister.  This probably means that this series of photographs will simply be renamed to 3.2 MP from that point on.  Stay tuned…

2 Megapixels [2]





Welcome to the second installment of iPhone picture series – “2 Megapixels.”  All the shots in this series could be considered “unprofessional,” taken without much thought or preparation.  I’d like to share them with you anyways.

The title of this image is “Orange Sky.”  I would venture to guess that over half of the pictures that people take with their iPhones are of the sky.  That guess would simply be based on MY usage of the 2MP camera located on the back of my 3G, but still…  It amazes me how many times the sky simply amazes me!  This shot was taken at a red light in Lisle, IL on my way home from work and edited with Adobe Photoshop Express.  Other pictures that I’ve taken of the sky with my iPhone can be found here, here, here, and here.

The title of this image is taken directly from this song by Alexi Murdoch.  Enjoy!

2 Megapixels [1]


I’d like to introduce you to a new feature on the site, appropriately titled “2 Megapixels.” Within each weekly entry with this title I will post an interesting picture that I’ve taken with my iPhone in the past week.  The number that follows will be the “volume” number or number of entries in the “2 Megapixels” series.  See below for entry [1].

I kind of cheated this time as this image was taken during one of the Cubs games I attended back in April.  I didn’t really expect to get any “postworthy” pictures that day as I didn’t even bring my camera.  But after some in-phone editing with Adobe Photoshop Express (highly recommended, free, editing app), this photo turned out pretty cool.  And as an added bonus, the Cubs won that day!  Click on the photo for a larger view of some vintage Wrigley Field seating.
