Random acts of iPhoneography

As I learn how to make better photos with the camera on my iPhone I’ve been using it more on my travels, figuring out what works best. During February I’ve experimented with all sorts of subjects and I thought I’d share a selection of them on my blog.

My first few images come from a stroll along the River Thames when I was staying overnight in Cookham.

Next came my visit to Bristol and this photo comes from St Mary Redcliffe. I have a mini-tripod which magnetically attaches to the back of my phone, allowing me to capture this low angle and to control the settings better in such a dark building.

Another photo from my Bristol trip - this time one of the plants on the windowsill in the house where I stayed overnight.

A stroll around our village and some beautiful snowdrops by the church.

Naturally I went inside the church - another moment for my little phone tripod to come into its own!

My final photo comes from a long wait on the platform at Twyford Station. As I patiently waited for my train to Paddington to arrive a freight train came thundering through. I quickly opened the Lightroom Mobile app to grab this 1 second exposure of ghostly blur as the yellow engine whizzed past me.
