036/365 – iPhone to the Bone

About a year and a half ago I bought an iPhone 3GS. I loved it and grew attached to the smooth interface, efficient OS and sweet apps.  When the iPhone4 came out, I was in line at 5AM securing my spot in the iPhone4 club.  Don’t get me wrong, I hate it when Mac snobs (I prefer Macs, but PCs have their place too), claim that the iPhone is the only phone to have and all others are far superior.  I just love the interface and wonderful hardware.  I get a kick out the people who claim the iPhone is the greatest phone but can’t tell you the display resolution or processor speed.  Anywho… I love my phone.

I had no idea what I was going to shoot tonight but I did know it would be a simple self portait.  Half way through snapping shots I got the idea you see above and I’m pretty happy with where it went.  Upon sitting here and looking at it, I like how the stainless steel fridge background adds a surgical-like theme.  Good night readers!
