Cutting down the time of experimenting with iPhone Photography

There are options, oh so many options, when it comes to enhancing a photograph taken with an iPhone. From simple touch ups, cropping, adding filters, to advance curves and multi-imaging. For many folks, like me, it’s part of the fun with taking photos with the iPhone. There is tuning, testing, changes and learning. Even when an image looks about right, I’ll try something else just to see if I was missing anything. One image will end up with a dozen versions in my iPhone’s photo library.

To get a better idea of options and seeing suggestions from the pros, there is a book I found: Create Great iPhone Photos. You can find it at a variety of online and local book stores.

The book has it’s 200 pages of tips divided down into a few key areas:
iPhone Camera Essentials
Customize You riphone Camera
Photoshop in Your Pocket
Filters, Effects and Recipes
The Retro Look
Fun and Offbeat Effects
Snap – and Share
Your Photoblog
For Inspirations

Great gift idea if your know someone with an iPhone and a Photography interest –

 

Moving photo editing between apps

While working on a photo in ColorSplash, I noticed that they are supporting cross app movement of the image.

A group of iPhone photo apps are using a common method of coding that gives you the ability to edit an image in one app and share it directly with another app to continue editing. You do not need to save the image from one app to the iPhone’s Photo Library then open it with another app to continue editing. From the apps’ Share option, choose to share the image with another app. You will then be presented with a list of apps on your iPhone that support the direct movement of photos between editors. I would expect the list to grow as other developers add the free feature.
