instagram for AEDM #12

Thanks to the suggestions by Leslie, I've been able to take a couple instagram pics off my phone and share them here.  Woohoo!

A fall walk.

 Working on mail art.

Sent out a bag full of these little foam pumpkins through the mail to friends and family.  They all arrived with no damage and much surprise to the recipients.  My family had no idea you could send stuff like this through the mail 'naked'.

I got my first smart phone a few weeks ago and have been trying to learn all it can do.  I think I've got most of the phone functions figured out so now I'm moving on to the fun stuff.  Asked around about what apps are the best/most fun so have added some of those.

Then, of course, there's Instagram.  Which I see EVERYWHERE online.  Everywhere.  Originally I thought I'd never use it cuz, well, I feel like I'm already spread thin with my creative efforts.  But then I rethought it .....if I'm taking pictures anyway, why not have another way to share them?  So I now have an Instagram account.  I'm following a few folks (man are there some beautiful photos being taken!) but would love to add more of the art community buddies.  If you're on instagram, leave me a comment so I can follow you.

If you want to see what I'm up to, I'm  tpurk13. Because I'm such a newbie - share any how-to's or tips too.....it's not quite as intuitive as I hoped so I do a lot of "oops....that's not what I meant to do!"   For example, when I load a picture it seems to show up sideways.  How do I straighten it out or does it show up the right way when you view it (it always shows sideways to me)?  And, how do I get a picture off Instagram to share on my blog - I've seen others of you do that so maybe you can help me out. Stuff like that.

(this blog doesn't have any pics because I couldn't figure out how to get them out of Instagram! :)
