RPF goes instagraming!!!!

RPF Chief iPhone app Reviewer
Hello all!!

I was having a brief discussion with mr gill about rpf having it's own instagram account. For those of you who are unaware of this iPhone application it's a phophotography community where people post pics follow each other like and comment on each others work. Basically twitter for photographers I thaught it would be a great Idea for rpf to have a sole account.

My plan was to set up the account with a profile bio explaining what rpf is all about.

When you look at the photo stream the RPF web address will be at the top of the page.

I feel we could drum up some more like minded snappers.

So...... All good apart from one thing....... Photographs!!!!!!!!

I was thinking of posting members photographs from here with the title and the photographer to really show case RPF.

Now I must stess the photos are displayed in app and cannot be saved, downloaded or used

So if you would like to join in please post a few of your own favorite photographs in this thread you would like showcased . I completely understand if you do not want your photographs used in this little venture. If so could you please also let me know. I'm looking for about 20 photographs to start with.

Other than that I will be floating around picking people's shots to post up.

Just a note I will always ask you if I can post it!!

Thanks all!!
 
Likewise - just nick anything I've posted on here - sounds like an interesting concept
 
same for me, if any of my photo's meet the standard then feel free
 
I'm good to go too if there's any of mine you want to add.
 
Wow my iphone has been going beserk !!! rpf insagram has been live for about 2 hours and you guys photos between you have hit over 70 likes with only 8 photos up!!! People are very interested about rpf. Please if you would like me to share you photos just say and I will post them!!!
 
So what's the handle on Instagram?

I looked up RPF and got a single image of headphones?
 
A few from me for you

Nice one tom ... looks to be working well!
Are we not supposed to keep it to Instagram photos?
Or do people just upload anything?
 
I just signed up to have a look, going great isn't it !!
 
Well I originally thought only instagrams but it seems lots and lots of pro photogs are using their work on there so fair game in my book. I don't edit your shots with the supplied filters just frame them as best I can to fit the square crop format they want..... Pete will love that!!!!!
 
Hi gents thanks for letting me use your pics for the greater good of RPF really hope it drums up some members and hits. Thanks for your input!! Also if you haven't yet said please give me the nod to use your work and I'll post it up. the more frequently I post the more excitement it seems to get.

For those of you that don't have acsess to the app I have taken some screen shots so you can see whats it's all about.

Scroll down further and you see our works

This is the view they see in their live feed or if they click on a picture tile in the gallery. It's a smooth vertical scroll page so dodders shot is half visible at the the moment to view the comments a flick of the thumb you can see the full shot. It has even more likes now!!
