Old Booth, a fun photo filters app, has dropped in price to £0.69

The app has some really good reviews on the app store and it is supposed to transfer your portrait photos to an era gone by... OldBooth - GetApp

True HDR has dropped in price to £0.69

True HDR is a very popular HDR photo capture app, and it has just dropped in price from £1.49 to £0.69. In my view, Pro HDR is a much better app and you should probably hang on for that to get discounted soon.

Photoloupe, an image viewing app, is available for FREE

It is a strangely nice way of viewing your photo using iPhone's gyroscope. First you zoom in to a photo and then tilt your screen to navigate across the length and breadth of the photo on your tiny screen.

Captured with Camera+ app on iPhone and edited in Phoster app for titles.

Apps featured:

Phoster, an iPhoneography app to create posters out of your photos, is available on a discounted price of £0.69

This app has some good reviews on other major iPhoneography app review sites and looks like a promising app to me if you want to create a marketing type poster of your photo.

Phoster - Bucket Labs

TransPhotos, a fun iPhoneography app, is now FREE

If you like to use filters on your photos, this app has some cool ones on offer. I would personally not rate the app very high - probably somewhere around 2.5 to 3 out of 5, but you can download it for FREE and check for yourself.
Transphotos - Chunlu Yan

wasHere seems an interesting app and is available for FREE

I haven't yet myself tested the app, but going by its app store description, it sounds quite interesting to me. It takes two pictures simultaneously with the front and rear camera together and then sews them in a way that puts a faded version of the front facing camera image on top of the rear facing one.

Shange, a good collage making iPhoneography app, is now FREE

This app boasts to have 100 colorful patterns and many unique layouts and styles. I would say its worth a try at its current price. It has a rating of 4/5 from 10 reviews on App Store.

I have a slightly unusual edition today. I normally post different versions of the same picture every day, but today I have got six different pictures themselves. All these photos were taken with just iPhone and then “apped” up to give a distinctive feeling.

MobileMonet, an artistic iPhoneography app, has dropped in price to £0.69

Made by the same guys, East Coast Pixels, that made some other hugely popular apps like Photo Toaster and Color Blast!, this is a good fun app to transform your photos into colored sketches. Colors can be filled in selectively and progressively. You also get options to change the intensity of vibrance, brightness and color.

I personally preferred using this app for landscapes rather than portraits. A good app overall - recommended.

PixelWorks is now FREE

Its a good combination of selective coloring and Blur FX.

Effects: Vintage blue + Color Splash + Glowing Edges

POTD: An Autmn Scene


Autumn Birds


The wild duck startles like a sudden thought,
And heron slow as if it might be caught.
The flopping crows on weary wings go by
And grey beard jackdaws noising as they fly.
The crowds of starnels whizz and hurry by,
And darken like a clod the evening sky.
The larks like thunder rise and suthy round,
Then drop and nestle in the stubble ground.
The wild swan hurries hight and noises loud
With white neck peering to the evening clowd.
The weary rooks to distant woods are gone.
With lengths of tail the magpie winnows on
To neighbouring tree, and leaves the distant crow
While small birds nestle in the edge below.
-- John Clare

I took this picture with my iPhone last week while sitting in Greenwich Park.

POTD: A Rose in a Flower


A Little Budding Rose


It was a little budding rose,
Round like a fairy globe,
And shyly did its leaves unclose
Hid in their mossy robe,
But sweet was the slight and spicy smell
It breathed from its heart invisible.
The rose is blasted, withered, blighted,
Its root has felt a worm,
And like a heart beloved and slighted,
Failed, faded, shrunk its form.
Bud of beauty, bonnie flower,
I stole thee from thy natal bower.
I was the worm that withered thee,
Thy tears of dew all fell for me;
Leaf and stalk and rose are gone,
Exile earth they died upon.
Yes, that last breath of balmy scent
With alien breezes sadly blent!
-- Emily Bronte
