Mobile Photography – StreetWise – Second Challenge Results – Shadows
Welcome to our Second StreetWise Challenge Showcase – ‘Shadows’. We are thrilled to share it with you! “Photography is an art of observation. It has little to do with the things you see and everything to do with the way you see them.” Elliott Erwitt We hope that you found this to be an inspiring theme – perhaps seeing the streets around you and those that inhabit them in a new way and perhaps from a perspective that you may not have noticed before. The most difficult part of curating the showcases is choosing a limited number of photos from all of those that were submitted – thank you so…

Mobile Photography – StreetsAhead – Tribute to Arjan van der Horst Challenge Results
This challenge showcase was devoted to our Arjan van der Horst who we tragically lost not so long ago. The challenge was to use the Arjan film (created by the Hipstamatic team in honour of Arjan) to capture images in the way we knew he would from the wonderful images he left us to remember him by. The four images I have selected I feel best capture the spirit and style of our dear friend. With many congratulations and huge thanks to Paula Betlem, FrauLN, Karen Axelrad, Christine Mignon, Gillian Brodie, Giulia Baita, Armineh Hovanesian, Montse Abad, Patricia Januszkiewicz, Ile Mont, Lee Atwell, Heather McAlister, Gina Costa, Marsha Leith, Lila Lile, Cara Gallardo…

Mobile Photography & Art Flickr Group Showcase – 15 May 2016
Human happiness as many writers will tell you is a mix of the rough and the smooth, the aches and the pains as well as the joys of life. Happiness is neither the journey nor the destination, it is simply something we achieve more often than not when when we travel the right way. The images that you will be drawn to and the music that flows through this weeks mobile photography and art Flickr Group showcase have a sense of quiet wisdom all of their own. It represents a marvellous synthesis of good sense and talent. Enjoy! If you would like your work to be considered for entry into…

Showering of Love – Appstracts Mobile Art Group with Roger Guetta
Recently the Mobile Art Facebook Group Appstracts hosted on Facebook and run by one of our very own Columnists Roger Guetta, hosted a very touching mobile art challenge. The Challenge was for all the artists within this group to show their love for me by creating a unique image. The results are true testament to the tenderness and ability of our community of mobile artists and photographers and also the love story that we all share. The meticulous detail and thought that each and every mobile artist has put into this challenge sweeps me away. Your love beseeches me to revere your mobile art that awakens, sustains and nourishes all…

Mobile Photography & Art Flickr Group Showcase – 1 May 2016
I have dedicated my entire life to the pursuit of creativity and I spend most of my time encouraging other people to do the same because living a creative life is the most beautiful life there is. In many ways, the human artistic expression is blessedly, refreshingly, non essential. John Lennon once said about the Beatles, “we were just a band”. Some of the most sublime occasions of my life have been when I have been inspired by all of the brilliant mobile photographers and artists that I have been lucky enough to surround myself with. The quality of the images submitted to our Flickr Group this week are so…

Mobile Photography & Art Flickr Group Showcase – 17 April 2016
There is no silence more resounding than that of a cognitive communication malfunction. To be awake, to understand, to feel excruciating pain, to be aware of an existence but unable to reply. We all live complex and miracles of life, diverting us, pleasing us, frightening, transforming and defining us. We share so much, least of all our love for mobile photography and art. This weeks showcase explores profound emotional and visceral matters. It is an elegant and moving film, I hope you all enjoy it as much as I do. If you would like your work to be considered for entry into our weekly Mobile Photography and Art flickr group,…

Mobile Photography & Art Flickr Group Showcase – 3 April 2016
It is a huge privilege to me to present this weeks Mobile Photography & Art Flickr Group showcase on my birthday! It’s been pure joy to look at each one of your images in detail and to curate them here. I’ve been up early this morning because I am very lucky to be going out to lunch with my mother (who is spending a few days in England) and family to celebrate this day. It’s so important that each one of us opens up space for ourselves, it is truly a life-affirming and sacred act. We were not put here to grow old when we were young. We were put…
