The Camera In My Pocket

[Ted Byrne]

I am psyched over the tiny camera with the plastic lens in my CHEEEP Verizon, LG, clamshell cellphone. It's the ultimate point and shoot, right? So I've begun to plan way ahead, composing and capturing images specifically for post processing, hunting for the shapes, forms, textures, and palettes that seem to be the essence of stuff. Like this 57 Corvette that was sitting on a lawn in the late afternoon direct summer sun. How to make what the Chevy designers already created... mine? Hmmmmm......

Will this look cool on the wall of a chi-chi rich saloon?

After the Lomo/Holga trend, now is the time for the phone-camera trend. Sorry, I won't comment on that, though.

This is the kind of image that should be viewed in much larger size in order to be fully evaluated and appreciated.

Nevertheless, I like both the composition and the technique you used. It is certainly your own Corvette. Chevrolet designers have nothing to do with it. Would they hang this picture on their corporate wall? I doubt it... What's a chi-chi rich salon?

"Chi-chi" is jargon for rich and trendy. A salon is where the chi-chi go for their beauty treatments... 

Yeah... this would look great BIG .... I mean really  B   I   G and possible framed in a pewter against a dark British Racing Geen wallpaper.... It will SCREAM.... "MONEY"!
