There are Hipstamatic/iPhoneography haters out there. That's OK, I get it. I don't own a lomography camera, I haven't taken an actual film-film photo in a long while (though that will change soon...I'm going to gather up my old Minolta from Ojai on my next trip down the coast), and it's kind of cheating to use a program that does it all for you. It's also a ton of fun to use apps like Hipstamatic. And it requires some expertise, as you will see from the washed-out, weirdly lit, and otherwise amateur shots below. I'm getting better at it. However, on Halloween, when everyone (/many adults) have had a bit too much to drink, have spent too much time sweating their make-up off, and are fighting a food/sugar coma, it's better to do things old-school. With an iPhone. No hi-def, ultra-pixelated for us. Haven't you seen the 30 Rock with the HD camera (sorry, no link, go watch episode seven, season four)? So, in closing, I don't care.
In the following images, you will see two Jeff Lebowskis (with Caucasians), a number of characters from Wet Hot American Summer, views from a Russian Hill rooftop, a one-percenter lurking in the background ("But I have yacht payments!"), a jeans-into-jorts incident, a honey dadger (she don't care), and Egon Spengler, Ghostbuster.
