First Aid Kit | Ghost Town

Hardluck Hotel — Fri, 30 Jul 2010 14:38:06 +0000

Earlier this month I was lucky enough to see First Aid Kit for the second time this year. The performance was amazing and once again the girls gave a completely acoustic performance, at the front of stage, of Ghost Town, one of the most beautiful songs on their album The Big Black and The Blue.

I managed to capture the performance on my iPhone and decided to share it with you here.

Recorded live at the Hare and Hounds, Kings Heath, Birmingham on 15th July 2010. Filmed on iPhone 3GS.

Street Signs Project

Hardluck Hotel — Fri, 23 Apr 2010 14:26:14 +0000

I was looking for a new project to do over the spring and I decided that I would take photographs of all the street signs I passed. The idea is to stop, take one shot from the best possible position with my iPhone and then process with apps.

These are the results – and I’ll adding more to the series as I pass more signs.

All photographs were taken on a iPhone 3GS (3 megapixel) camera, Helga and Lolo filter enhancements made with the camerabag application.

Bearwood in Winter

Hardluck Hotel — Fri, 29 Jan 2010 17:26:44 +0000

I’m already missing the snow that covered most of the UK recently, so to remind me of how incredible everything looked, I thought I’d take this opportunity to post up a series of photographs taken during those wonderful weeks.

The Fog – In West Bromwich

Hardluck Hotel — Tue, 15 Dec 2009 20:10:27 +0000

A heavy fog enveloped West Bromwich last Friday and after seeing images on Flickr coming from people in Birmingham, I was inspired to capture what was happening in West Bromwich.

This series was shot on my iPhone just after nine in the morning and was then put through one of the TTV filters in the Lo-Mob application – the result really makes West Bromwich look incredible.

Statues

Hardluck Hotel — Tue, 04 Aug 2009 19:51:33 +0000

Statues is an experimental series of photographs taken in Birmingham and further afield. It uses the iPhone and an application called CameraBag (iTunes App Store link) to enhance the images using classic camera and film simulations.

The CameraBag app focuses on emulating the styles and processes from some of the most interesting cameras of the past and is a fantastic addition to any iPhone users set of photographic tools.

The Statues series will continue to grow so keep on eye on this page or the Flickr page for new additions.
