“Picture yourself in a boat on a river, with tangerine trees and marmalade skies.. somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly.. a girl with kaleidoscope eyes”

If you haven’t read the last post.. I’d recommend it otherwise you’ll have no idea what I’m talking about. The next category for the Ray Ban Photography Awards was MOBILE, and I had 2 photos be picked (Yay!) basically anything taken with a mobile phone qualified. I wonder how you monitor this because how can you reeeeaaaallly be sure someone used their mobile phone (I have my doubts with a few) but if so i would like to know what kind of mobile they have because some of the pics I’m posting are amazing! So the two images from my collection that made the grade are this one..

This was at the U2 concert in Melbourne last year.. all girls will attest to how incredibly long the wait is for the bathroom at a gig and when I got to the front I saw this little girl at the end obviously waiting for somebody, looking at her U2 tickets like they were so precious.. whipped out my mobile and took a picture. I like the tones, how she contrasts but also the symmetry of the toilet stalls how it all leads to her.. simple pic but a goodie.. .. next one..

Before a night out in Melbourne just stepped off the bus on the bridge near federation square and the sun was setting, men were rowing, the sky was amazing and my proper Lumix camera had died so I used my mobile phone (which by the way is the Sony.E X10 not a bad camera but not the best either really have to stay still for a quality shot).. love the colours, the ripples in the water and the rowers add a nice touch.. so pretty awesome to get these two in the semi-finals. Now for my favourites from the rest of them.. ..
