Chile - A Photo Tapestry from Viña to Valdivia

in #travel8 years ago

I've always loved toy cameras, especially the infamous plastic Holga. Unfortunately, the camera was too cumbersome to bring on my trip to Chile... especially with the medium format film.

To recreate the look digitally, I bought a $10 lens for my iPhone 6s. My case created about a millimeter of space between the lens and camera, which added to the warped focus and manual vignetting I was trying to achieve. I boosted the saturation between 5 and 20 percent in Enlight. I know this is cheating, but my goal was to capture the feeling of traveling through Chile. The cheap lens and saturation boost got me pretty damn close! 

If you have questions about specific pics, let me know in the comments : )

fotos de mi pais. Me gusta mucho!

En qué ciudad vives?

Puerto Varas

Very nice. I'm Valdivia for the next couple months. Loving it, so far!

I've spent a lot of time in Valdivia. If you like it there, you will really enjoy it here. About 3 hours by car. Oh, you must be working with @piedpiper?

I love it. I've been wanting to get to Puerto Varas before I head back, but haven't had a chance yet. And yep, workin' with Gabe : )

Your photos look great, congratulations.

I love Chile. I was there once only - Viña and Valparaiso - and I loved every second of it.

I remember very well how I was drinking beer on a peer in Viña and listening to the music of a young and promising singer named Shakira :)

Great pictures!~
