iPhoneography 2015 Contest

Yesterday I got to hang with the iStore and a bunch of cool kids, zipping around Jozi in fun Mini Cooper’s, snapping pics of all the pretty things, using our iPhone! Why you ask?

He’s sort of a nomad, since I haven’t found a permanent residence for him just yet. I think that Frank needs more “gold friends”. Not in the ghastly, ornate, gahhh-lld kinda way, but you know in a more minamalistic, sleek and simple kind of way, and I think Typography prints (another obsession) would do the trick.
