iPhone Photography and Processing

I love the adventure of wandering here and there. Even if the baggage is blue, it is small. That counts.

Backstory: I'll begin with the obvious, which is I am always trolling for colorful, old suitcases. The ones with irregular proportions are an instant favorite. I love them! No excuses actually, just a mere fetish.
My dear friend invites me to go along with her to a flea market on a rainy Sunday, and I accept. My reward is a day packed with joyful laughter, and loving companionship. I enjoy our time together and wish it could be more often. Just before leaving, I catch a glimpse of a stack of old you-know-whats. Whether I rush, or not doesn't matter because it's a given that I am going home with it. So I rush.
There's no bartering necessary because he knows as I examine the treasure that a sale is imminent. It's a rainy day, after all. He needs to make some profit. It happens. I buy it.
Weeks later, I am at home and decide to create an image. I set up my makeshift studio in the garage this time. The light is better than in the basement. I gather the iPhone, tripod, and blue suitcase. I set the TimerCamera app to fifteen bird chirps, which means that I hit the button and run to pose. By the time I hear the fifteenth bird chirp, the shutter sounds to indicate mission accomplished. This happens several times until I am happy with an image.
I move the image through several apps and then lovingly share my art.
If you are so lucky as to spy an unusual suitcase, gather it up. Who knows? It may inspire your inner creativity in a new and adventurous way.
As always, I appreciate the art love.

Final sharpening in Photoshop using High Pass Filter--I think it does the best job of sharpening.
One of the textures is my own gelliprint.
The SUN is out!! YAY!! Grabbed this shot yesterday on the way to work, very cliche shot for me of my now infamous water tower, featured many times, and probably will be many more, :) Also did some PP with Repix.
