Faved On Flickr iPhoneography Showcase, 08.05.12

Passing Train by Mooro2 / Paul Moore

Here is this week’s Faved On Flickr. I started sharing these iPhoneography showcases in August, 2010, which makes this one of the longest-running mobile photography showcases on the web. Here are some of the excellent images chosen from the those shared to Life In LoFi’s Flickr group.

This week, there are plenty of what I call “found moments” that is one of the things that iPhone photography excels at. As your camera is usually so accessible — the one that’s with you — photographers are now able to capture so many of those perfect photographic moments that used to be lost. This is different than street photography or candid photography. It’s capturing the spirit of a fleeting moment to preserve and share.

Paul Moore has created some stunning landscapes throughout his catalog. The are often huge in scope but draw the viewer in. Because of the perspectives and the procesing he uses, they’re almost dreamscapes. Almost…. This week’s lead image, “Passing Train,” is a another of his excellent landscapes and one of my favorites from his works. It’s another big image that’s best viewed as large as possible.

There are a lot of excellent photographs this week, including some outstanding moments captured or created by ©arlein, Greg Schmigel, iPhoneographyCentral’s Nicki Fitz-Gerald, Paula Gardener, Isabelle “misspixels” Gagné, Susan Blase, maansee, mutablend, brandon smith, and many others.

Several of the images this week were also selected for our new, Twitter-only feature, Life In LoFi’s Daily Pic. Follow @LifeInLoFiBlog on Twitter for each day’s image.

I hope you enjoy the set. As always, it’s the iPhoneographers who deserve the credit. My sincere thanks to all of the iPhoneographers who continue to share their outstanding photography here and elsewhere.
