A bit About Me

My photo
My name is Rosanna Cappiello, I was born in Sorrento(Italy) At the age of 19 I traveled to Great Britain where I lived for the past 15 years. I have an HND and a BA(Hons) both in Photography. I would class my art/photography as social realism, intimate photography mixed with social documentary. I work mainly with documentary and portrait photography with spasmodic drifts towards fine art. my latest interest and challenge is iphoneography, and I am producing a series of project using only an iphone device. My latest exhibitions took place in New York, Manchester, London and Blackpool. Next exhibition (Curated by Myself and Mariano Luchini) will be in Naples on the 24th of February 2012, WiAM first iphoneography show. http://www.facebook.com/events/301864776536339/ My Publications: -Blackpool – The People’s Playground http://www.shanachie.co.uk/page2/page10/page10.html -My i and eye http://www.blurb.com/bookstore/detail/2175977 -Street Exposé http://www.blurb.com/bookstore/detail/2990660 -The Nudes Of Pixels (Curated by myself) http://www.magcloud.com/browse/issue/344808 Thank you :0)

I'M BACK :0)

Hi Guys

Just realized I've neglected this blog for a wile and i thought I'd get back on it.

This is a collection of my Hipstamatic photographs that I'm shooting on my IPhone.

I absolutely love this application and I found myself using it more ofter than my new, high quality & expensive Canon :0/...Mad isn't it?!?!?!?!

You can also take a look at my Hipstamatic album on my website:

I have tried something today but the project is still work in progress, however i will keep you updated from time to time :0)

The Moon Tonight

Hi everyone,

It's such a beautiful evening tonight that I could not help spending the past hour photographing the moon.

The first attempt is embarrassing actually but I will show you it anyway so You can see the progress I suppose :0) but don't laugh!!! lol

Here it is with a 70mm lens and no polarize filter on and on a tripod with a longish exposure (horrendous):


However after this one I thought I would change everything; I got a telephoto lens out (300mm) and a polarize filter, also got rid of the tripod and hand held the camera.

I bracketed the exposure a little, first a 60th of a sec. then a 90th but anyway eventually I got what I think is a much better shot and I am happy with it.

Hope you all like it too :0)...


I did sharpen it a little on Photoshop but not madly.

Well let me know what you think.

Bye for now  :0)

Frozen Lake, Scotland.

I am so pleased I went, I've had a lovely week and this was the most beautiful frozen lake I've ever seen!!!
