Wabi-Sabi

Wabi-sabi is the art of finding beauty in imperfection: it values simplicity, uncluttered, underplayed, and modest surroundings. Authenticity is key to wabi-sabi philosophy: the presence of cracks and scratches in things are considered to be symbolic of the passing of time, weather, and loving use–and should be embraced.

Concrete and Pipe, Zeno Place

Concrete and Pipe. Taken with an iPhone.

Another shot of Zeno Place in SOMA, San Francisco. I love the color, the textures, the patina, and the way the light hits the alley in the morning and late afternoons. I’m sure the building (and my favorite subject) will be gone someday soon.

Instagram at lunch

Taking photos on my lunch hour, listening to music, and publishing on the web, all from a smartphone. It takes the sting out of not having a jetpack in this iteration of The Future.

Unfortunately, I had to try 3 different locations to get a 3G connection from AT&T.

Complaining about the iPhone’s camera?

Kyle Cassidy’s take on the iPhone’s camera, from his iPhonetography site:

THE CAMERA THAT COMES WITH THE iPHONE IS TERRIBLE

Many people decry it’s smallish megapixel count (3), but really, as any serious digital photographer will tell you, size doesn’t matter. The most frustrating thing about the image that comes from the iPhone is the noise. Not audible noise, but digital grain. That, and it’s slow response time, and of course, the lack of control: apart from aiming the camera and depressing shutter button, the user doesn’t have any control over aperture (fixed at 2.8) focal length, shutter speed, or even ISO, which swings from ~70 into the 1000+ range as it wants. The 3Gs has a “press here to focus” option that does adjust the exposure, but seems to refocus as it sees fit afterwards, more taunt than feature.
