Funny, I’m in Tucson this week. I was driving down Reddington after a mountain bike ride and you can imagine my surprise when I saw Portland Velo and I think Capitol Velo jerseys headed up the hill. I didn’t recognize them but it was neat to see some familiar kits 1600 miles from home.

Thanks Heidi. I’ll look out for it in the stores over here.

Cool name for the cat, for a moment I thought maybe he was named after the Union Cycliste Internationale, not quite so cute! :)

Chris,
I think the camera on the iphone 3GS is fantastic. Do it!
And, yes, one of my cat’s names is Uci, which is short for Ucidato, which is a type of Sicilian cookie that is “all curled up”.
He’s fat.
Very fat.

My only reason for not changing to an iPhone was I that I was concerned about the camera quality. But these pictures are all beautiful, I know it’s not the bike it’s the engine… but now there’s nothing to stop me!

The filter is great too gives a warm ‘obscura’ feel.

Is your cat really called UCI???

Nicholas – Agree! I have been making some sweet panos with “pano” but they don’t translate very well to the web of course. :)
Also love TiltShiftGen every now and then when I’m feeling playful.

Wonderful collection of photos. Camerabag is a great app. CameraKit and Photogene are my other two faves. It’s often fun to process a pic through multiple apps to get some really interesting PP results.

Aha! Your iPhone photo secrets revealed at least. That’s been driving me crazy. :)
