Getting close up with your iPhone!

Without a doubt the best accessory that I have bought for my iPhone is the Kikkerland Close Up Jelly Lens. For $7 you can't beat this little lens!

One of the easiest ways to make a great picture is to get close up and fill the frame. Close up shots let you show your subjects in a completely different way and they never fail to impress people.

The Kikkerland close up lens can be used with any of the apps, but I find that it works the best with apps that make a square image. Sometimes you can see the edges of the lens in the photo so the square format crops that out. My favorite app to use with this lens is Hipstamatic. Plastic Bullet also works really well for cool looking close up shots (the heavy vignetting effect obscures the lens edges).
