Retro NYC















The HTC EVO Android phone as I discover it is a thing of greatness. After suffering the setback of losing a classy Nokia E63 gifted to me by dear Adelphius Vikramis in an NYC yellow cab, I was needless to say, overcome with immense grief and guilt. That combined with a set of circumstances favouring my decision to go for an Android phone led me to the EVO. Which in turn led me to the awesomeness of Retro Camera. An app on the Android Market that does pretty much what Hipstamatic can pull off on the iPhone.
These are images I've been taking over the course of the past few days. Oft repeated NYC themes as you can clearly see, though refreshing when seen through the lens of the Retro Camera.
I virtually took no effort to take these pictures, nor time, which to the chagrin of many an SLR purist are both expended in the mere setup of the right frame. That combined with a nifty 8 megapixels of clarity makes for some pretty enjoyable photographing experiences.
