Cloudy Aftermath #photography

After a night of gale force winds the morning after was filled with traffic jams, spurts of rain and more winds. At one point the Sun broke through the clouds and the skies above the distant horizon were calm and blue. This is what I saw. Again, all processing etc done on my iPhone.

Cityscape of Leeds

On this very cold Thursday morning I decided to visit a viewpoint that overlooks Leeds city centre. The weather was awful; a gets-on-both-sides-of-your-glasses type rain mixed with a brisk breeze from the Atlantic. I didn't have my 5Dmk|| with me (shame on you! And you call yourself a photographer?) but like a lot of my spur of the moment photos I use whatever camera equipment I have at the time. After all, a pic is better than no pic! Here is the original shot from my iPhone 4G...

Nothing too special I know.. But after selectively cropping the image to get the picture I was actually after (iPhones only have digital zoom so you're best off cropping later than zooming!) I then processed it to give the feeling of how I saw it: cold and dark.

Here's the completed pic (taken, cropped, processed, watermarked and upload by my iPhone).

Now what do I label this image as..? Any suggestions?

Until next time!

iPhone madness, madness I tell you!

Hi everyone,

The topic today is, you guessed it, the iPhone. Well not exactly the iphone but more the apps that are available for it to fulfil the question "what apps can I use when I'm out and about to produce reasonably decent images when I don't have my SLR, Mac Pro, Photoshop and Internet connection with me?.."

Well that a tough one... But...

Best app for HDR:
For those of you wanting to play about with HDR images I highly recommend Pro HDR; a pretty decent app that enables you to produce decent HDR images that from saved images or via the camera and allows a fair amount of tweakability. Best app for Panoramic images:
Panoramatic is a highly advance app that uses various algorithms to stitch together your images. Again, you can tweak various settings to get the kind of image you want. Post processing?
A huge favourite of mine is Mill Colour. A fav because it's free (yay!) and because it has awesome built in 'looks' as well as full control over saturation, gamma, gain and lift in all three colours of the digital rainbow (rgb).

Ok so how do I watermark my pic?
Good question.. Go and download the free app 'Impression'. Very simple and does what you need it to!

Here's something I did earlier using only the apps mentioned here.

And here's one in black and white too.

Also, this message was written on my iPhone too. Ah.. The wonders of technology!

Until next time.
