| Ebisubashi Bridge in Osaka. Best food in Osaka in the area |
Late bloomage is kind of like my modus operandi. I didn't have my first boyfriend until I was 19, I didn't start traveling seriously until my late 20's, and I didn't install the mother of all photo app's until about three weeks ago while in Japan. Better late than never, I reckon.
After a few minutes of playing, I was in love. Instagram and it's broad selection of filters transformed my dodgy smartphone pictures into quirky pieces of art. Since I was able to stay connected with my econnect Pocket Wifi, I was uploading like gang busters, sharing my impressions in real time with members of my social networks. Here is a selection of my favorite shots, all taken with my Iphone and revamped a bit with Instagram.

Looking at my Instagram photos from my Japan trip make me want to research flights to Osaka so I can go back and witness the cherry blossoms in spring. SIGH! One day, I'll be back.

Love Instagram and it's amazing how good of photos you can get with it. I was recently introduced to the app Camera+ and that combined with Instagram's effects are so much fun to play with.

ReplyDeleteplay bazaar satta king Never try to force yourself to have a bowel movement. If you are not completely ready to use the bathroom, try exercising or walking to help with the bowel movement.
