2 Today!

Wednesday, 22 February, 2006 — filed under: phonecam / web

It was two years ago that I posted the first image to my moblog, Light & Dark. I’m stupidly sentimental, particularly with numerical significance, so when I noticed that I was on nine hundred and ninety-eight pictures, I knew that I’d have to wait until this second aniversary before I could post #1000.

I started off with a Sony Ericsson T610 – lovely phone with a really rugged feel – and switched a year ago to a SE K700i, with a camera resolution of 640×480 pixels! Hopefully I’ll upgrade to a K750 sometime in the next week, and those 2MP should prove satisfactory for use as a basic, but capable, camera. It almost worries me that phonecam’ery will become too much like ‘normal’ photography, and lose something of its rustic, blurry charm.

Anyway, here’s to the next two years of low-res snapping!
