Another full weekend and another happy party. I feel like September has passed in a blur of entertaining and schedules but at least the weather has been beautiful, the company has been great and we’ve enjoyed plenty of good food and drink on the deck.
I sat down outside Saturday evening to enjoy a quiet moment after the party but instead of picking up my book I went for my phone to snap a few photos of the flowers on our table.

You really have a great eye, Lisa. I like these better than some of my macro shots shot with a macro lens 🙂

How nice, Paula but your macro shots are fantastic. 🙂 I’ve never used a macro lens so I just keep trying to hold my phone as still as possible and cross my fingers for a clear shot…

What wonderful autumn colors, Lisa! I can identify with always picking up my camera/phone to get “just one more photo.” 🙂

Nice treatment. Care to share your technique? The feel is somber, autumnal and rich.

I’m happy to share my editing choices, thanks for the question, Jann. I took this shot with my favorite Hipstamatic lens/film combination for flowers – Jane/Robusta. Sometimes I’ll adjust the contrast and brightness a little in Snapseed later but this image is pure Hipstamatic.

Hmmnn, maybe it’s time to revisit Hipstamatic! It fell out of favor with me awhile back. So many apps, so little time . . . thanks for sharing the tidbits that go into making a work of art.
