I was tagged by @la-tarasque to “post my aesthetic in pictures from my phone”, which is an interesting constraint. So, here’s me looking for pictures saved to my phone to find ones that reflect an aesthetic I enjoy, I guess. Hmm!

I don’t often take aesthetic pictures on my phone, they’re almost always documentary in nature, so it’s interesting to try to consider them that way. Sometimes, like the stairwell picture, they’re a testament to the limitations of a camera with no controls and a tiny sensor. (That’s a portrait of my father, painting the front door. Can you see him? Probably not.)

I seem to like a lot of blues and dark reds, and I am inordinately fond of trying to mess with my camera by including a light source in the frame.

I really ought to get the photos off my camera from the last, like, five visits to the farm, and recharge that battery…. 

Tagging, hmm… @heartofoshun, @vulgarweed, @shaebay, @wyomingnot, @torrilin, @buttons-beads-lace, @this-is-furious, and anyone else who sees this and thinks they might have interesting stuff saved to their phone. 

I kind of cheated I guess? because everything I save to my phone gets auto-uploaded to Dropbox so I can access it from my computer, because #1 I don’t know how to make photo posts from my phone and #2 I am always paranoid I’ll lose my phone.
