That Was 2013

May Morning :: Tinto 1858 // Pistil // Laser Lemon GelAt last I have edited thousands of photos and distilled last year into twelve of my favourite pictures. It wasn't easy – there were another 102 that didn’t make the cut. Some months seemed to have far more options than others, June especially. I dithered over June.

I have had my favourite Hipstamatic combinations, but I still shake for random often, although out of this selection only the umbrellas and the quinces resulted from random shakes. I particularly love the Tinto/Pistil/Laser Lemon Gel combination (above), which I originally discovered from a random combination.

My newest favourite is the Brighton Hipstapak – the Doris lens and Sussex film, although the latter works well with the Melodie lens too under lower light conditions or high contrast light/shade, when you want to tease out a little more detail than the Doris will give. Sometimes I use the Laser Lemon Gel flash with these – I do love a golden glow. I still love the Tinto pak too, though it tends to crash the app most of the time unfortunately.
