Pixi Pics
I lost my digital camera mid april, leaving me without one for about two months. Beyond the outrage of self-blame, losing some potential killer photos and possibly incriminating ones, I was camera-less.
I believe I fit the description of an “amature photographer”, maybe a “hobbyist”. It doesn’t pay the bills, but I inherently have to do it. When you get the urge in your stomach to record really good imagery, you have to be prepared.
When that was taken away from me I accidentally left it in a cab; enter the palm pixi. The backup plan. Love the phone, by the way. It run webOS, which uses web-kit (so I get my rounded corners, yay) and there’s a physical keypad. Below are some I snapped and spruced up a bit in photoshop.
