I'm back with a new set of Five Friday Favs! Every Friday I'm going to feature five certain things that are my favorite.
Last week, I posted about my five favorite fonts, and this time I'm coming to you with five of my current favorite fun stuff from the photography front!
The olloclip is a fun little corner slide-on piece for the iPhone. It comes with three different lenses: a fisheye lens, a wide-angle lens, and a macro lens. It works only on an iPhone 4 or 4S, and only with the back-facing camera. This video explains about it in depth.
I'm in love with the fish-eye lens, and my #photoadaySept will probably be all about it. hint*hint The wide angle lens is eh, alright, but the MACRO lens impressed the sh** outta me! Like whoa!
It's a lot of fun to use.
-------------------
I'm ALL ABOUT anything to do with cats and kitty boops -- I mean you must already know that -- but this app allows for me to post images like those above^^ and tag them on instagram with the hash #MEOWFIToftheday. I mean, c'mon. C'mon! I die. Like, literally -- heart stops.
Purrrr Purrrr Purrr ... happy place.

FotoRus is also an iPhone app that, as you can see above, allows you to insert a picture within a staged scene. You can play around with the foreground and background too, adding filters or different images.
It's a lot of fun, and makes for interesting portrayals. That bubble image was me on an August Monday afternoon paper-crafting outside in my bathing suit thinking to myself 'I don't want my Summer bubble to burst'. FotoRus helped me convey that notion.
Oh jeez. Summer's almost done.

I must admit, I wasn't the best 'Roid Week participant this year. I thought I was going to be, but then as the week went by, I just wasn't as on top of it as I was with other things. However, I did take a few polaroids, and nothing beats having them in your hands, all perfect in their imperfection.
I love you, p-roids!

Ah, bokeh. It's like little light-sequins for photos. ...and who couldn't use some o'that?!
There are a number of iPhone apps that allow you to put bokeh specks in your photo. What's special about Bokehful is that it allows for customizable bokeh specks. You can 'place' your bokeh, you can choose the shape and color, and you can add a lot or a little. Also, you can undo if you made incorrect placement.
I say...
...everything is better with bokeh.
