Pics from InstawalkSF through Chinatown

Street view

I had a great time at Saturday’s InstawalkSF through Chinatown. It was our biggest group yet, and might have been my favorite photowalk yet! Thanks to Photojojo for co-organizing the event and for bringing all those awesome mobile phone fisheye lenses for folks to use. I met a bunch of cool people and got some decent photos. I really dug meeting up at The Empress of China for drinks after the walk. That was a lucky find and I can’t wait to go back!

To keep up with future events, join our San Francisco Instawalk google group… and remember to upload your favorite mobile phone photos to our Objective Scenes flickr group. Here are some of my iPhone pics from the walk, click here for the full Flickr set:

February 19th Instawalk

This was the fist shot I took during our February 2nd Instawalk to Sausalito. It was a rainy day, and I thought the walk was going to be a disaster. The walk turned out to be fantastic and the rainy weather resulted in some fantastically moody shots! Lesson learned.

BTW, don’t forget about tomorrow’s Instawalk in San Francisco’s Chinatown. I can’t wait to see what sort of shots people come up with. The folks at Photojojo created this Facebook event page with more details.

June 11th Instawalk in San Francisco’s Chinatown District

Posted on June 4, 2011 by DocPop

June 11th InstawalkSF

An Instawalk is an Instagram themed photo walk. Users are encouraged to shoot, process, and upload their photos as the walk is happening. If you haven’t done one yet, I highly recommend it. It’s a really bizarre experience to be seeing what your fellow photographers are seeing as the walk is happening.

Our next Instawalk in San Francisco is June 11th. We’ll meet at 11am at Dragon’s Gate (the cool sculpture at Bush and Grant St). Then we’ll walk through Chinatown for a couple of hours before ending up at a bar, where we’ll share iPhone photography tips.

As an extra bonus, we’ve teamed up with Photojojo for this Instawalk. They’ll be bringing 20 of their iPhone lenses (including the popular Fisheye lens) to lend out to our group for the walk. I know they’ll have some additional goodies with them too!

If you’d like to hear about these events sooner, or help plan your own, join our InstawalkSF Google Group.

This event is open to everyone, iPhones are not required 😉 IF you are uploading to Instagram, please use the #instawalksf hashtag. If you can’t make it, you can watch the event online as it happens.
