Photography is about seeing, not what tool you use. I enjoy going on photo trips -- excursions for the sole intent of making images. These trips are planned out, researched and treated like a major assignment. Sometimes the gear list will rival any commercial photo shoot, sometimes it could be simply a few Diana cameras and a brick of film. It depends on the trip and what, and how, I want to explore.
Lately my camera of choice is the iPhone 4s and my processing lab is Snapseed. The results are amazing and inspiring. No longer do I have to remember a camera when I walk out the door because my camera is always in my pocket. Sometimes I use it as a sketch pad, but more and more I'm using it just to see, to keep my eye in shape, to do that visual shadow boxing a visual artist needs to keep at the top of their game.
It's exciting because I no longer think or plan to see photographs, I just do. Every minute of every day I just see. No matter where I'm at, I'm seeing. And now I capture and process all in the palm of my hand.
