Anybody familiar with the Hipstamatic App on camera phones. That was the whole reason I got an ipod way back when. My employer at the time wouldn’t pay for an iphone so I used their flip phone and bought an ipod for my photographic adventures. That was also back in the day when I loved inexpensive plastic film cameras and all the special effects that you do with them. Hipstamatic was an iphone/ipod app that simulated making crappy photos with interesting effects. I ended up with a ton of different filters for it. I’ve drifted away from the app but I noticed that they had new filters where they are trying to incorporate the look of Frida Kahlo into the results. So hey I went and got the filter.
Frida Kahlo was a Mexican artist who had her own style of painting. Check out her Wikipedia Page.
I went outside and took a few pics. A few of them even had shadows in them.
So I don’t know if this how Kahlo would paint my backyard. I think she used a lot more vivid colors.
But I enjoy checking out new things.
Check out Shadow Shot Sunday
I really like the colours, without them our world would be boring.
…no shadows here today, no sun here today.
No, I have never heard of that app. I think your lizard would be much brighter had Kahlo painted it!
Me gusta la ultima foto. Te mando un beso.
Nope, I’ve heard of Hipstamatic – I think it may have been you, in a different post, but I agree the lizard would have been a lot more colorful in the hands of Kahlo. She was such a talented artist who dealt with so much physical pain in her lifetime.
I like bright colors so of course I m a fan of Kahlo. Its a great thing to have many interests, old and new, at any time but even more so while you’re recovering from surgery! Thanks for sharing another one of your interests.
