🌐 Presenting 2/25 at 7 pm: iPhoneography by Elise S, Arnold P and Gary L

“What the ‘I’ Sees”: An iPhoneography Presentation
In this presentation Elise Schreiber, Arnold Plotnick and Gary Levy
will share how their “i” sees: from journalistic street moments to lyrical, interpretive imagery and beyond, highlighting the surprising power of the phone we carry every day.

iPhoneography—a word born with the release of the first iPhone in 2007—has evolved into an entire creative discipline. What began with a simple 2-megapixel camera has grown into a remarkably powerful tool: high dynamic range, multiple lenses, panorama and macro capabilities, and an ever-expanding universe of editing apps right at your fingertips. Traveling light with an iPhone lets photographers act instantly, remain unobtrusive, and experiment freely with angles, close-ups, long exposures, and low-light scenes—opening creative doors that bulky gear sometimes can’t.
