New Feature: Show Off Your New, Vintage Port Jeff Photos

Patch wants to showcase your vintage-styled photos of the community taken via Instagram or Hipstamatic apps.

There's no arguing that the proliferation of smartphones has made shutter bugs out of the masses, but the latest craze is giving the flood of phone camera photos a vintage feel.

Free apps like Instagram and paid ones like Hipstamatic use old school lens and film emulators to make photos look like they came from another era. Social media sites are full of these vintage-style snapshots because, frankly, they are fun to take and even more fun to show off.

Port Jefferson Patch would like your vintage-style photos of the community, be it the landmarks, the people or the quirky close-ups found around town.
