I took the photos from this 7.5-mile run with my iPhone using the Hipstamatic app. The idea of the Hipstamatic is to recreate the effects of those cheap plastic film cameras—Holgas, Dianas, etc.—they sell for too much money at Urban Outfitters and museum gift shops. I used the "film" settings from the "Williamsburg Pack" add-on, so it was a good excuse to run in Williamsburg and over the bridge. The app was fun to play with. Apparently by design, it's impossible to a frame a shot accurately with it, which means the images you get are a bit of a surprise. Even just playing with Hipstamatic for a couple of hours, I can see that images like this can get old quickly. But a few cool shots came out. (I really like the one at the produce market near the end.)

Thank you for taking me on a run with you! I lived in Brooklyn for 2 years and still miss it dearly! I've been shooting with my hipstamatic since April and I still can't stop using it!
