Rediscovering the iPhone camera

My friend (and first boss at the Tribune) Grover wrote a good review of a couple iPhone camera apps, and I've spent the evening playing with them while watching the Hawks get off on the wrong foot in Vancouver tonight.

Up until tonight I really hadn't been a fan of the iPhone camera.   I used it occasionally to send friends a photo or if I didn't have any other camera on me at the time.  But now that I've obtained CameraBag and TiltShift, I can see keeping an eye out for more iPhone photo ops in the future.  So thanks to Grover for the heads up.  Check out some samples of what I've been up to tonight...

Update: check out the flickr photostream of my iPhone uploads for current & past images. iphone_01.jpg

Saturday morning Orrie & I decided to take a walk down on the lakefront.  The temperature was warm, although a storm front was on it's way bringing in a chill later in the afternoon, so figured it was best to get the walk in earlier rather than later.

We drove down to the softball fields between Belmont Harbor & Irving Park.  Left the car in the lot and walked on over to the lake shore.  As we were walking south toward Belmot Harbor, we noticed some people ahead near the edge of the of the breakwater (or whatever they call the miles of concrete pathways that the city has installed along the lake), and they were looking down as if something had fallen in.
