Who Needs a Camera…..
When you have a phone? I went to the Denver Art Museum on Saturday to refresh the visual data-bank with a little Cezanne and Degas. My back was a little tweaked from hauling all of my heavy professional lenses around on my shoulder all day Thursday and Friday, so I left the big camera behind. It was the first time I had seen the new Denver Art Museum expansion, a fantastic building designed by Daniel Libeskind. The way the faces and angles of this building play with light is amazing - notice how the surface of the wall in the second photo down looks like it is curved (it’s not). I had to take a few pictures and all I had was my phone, but I think the prescence of this structure still comes through in a megapixel.
I automated a process to make these cell phone pictures look decent in photoshop - you just need to blur out the ugly low quality digital texture and replace it with a more organic looking texture.
