A great piece of lighting Jeffrey. I really like how Radical Compassion stands out on the bookshelf.
Thanks Jill. My friend bought that stained glass, in the back, at an auction many years back not knowing what it would be as it was caked in grime. When they cleaned it off they were pleasantly surprised. I too was happy to see the title of that book in the imageA great piece of lighting Jeffrey.

Thank you! I like and use Camera+2 primarily for the Macro setting, which I leave it set to. It does a pretty good job when I don’t have add-on lenses. The quality of this app is exceptional and everything is fairly easy to find. CameraPixels has good and simple bracketing, focus stacking and time lapse. The image quality is also excellent. I recently requested its sister app, Chromatica, to add the ability to store copyright info as I had a couple of images purloined on Facebook and Instagram lately. Evidently other people asked too so it is in there as of the latest update.I love all your photos. I'm intrigued by your use of a variety of camera apps. Do you use specific apps for specific kinds of shots? Are you just "playing around"with different apps to see what their strengths and weaknesses are? Are there big differences between the apps?
Thanks for sharing all that.Thank you! I like and use Camera+2 primarily for the Macro setting, which I leave it set to. It does a pretty good job when I don’t have add-on lenses.

Halide is a fairly good app. I use it every now and then for the depth map it produces when trying Portrait type images. Their other app, Spectre, is interesting. They say it's a computational camera app. Aren't they all on a mobile platform? One can produce some nice images though.
I was invited to try out Obscura2. The interface is quite friendly with plenty of adjustments. The quality of images is what one would expect too, and it’s not too difficult to learn.
I have my very specific apps for different things: iLightningCam for lightning, SlowShutter for water, plants, people, and generally making things look weird, Hipstamatic, cos it's Hipsta, VividHDR because it’s easy and produces images that don't look like cartoons.
I’m trying to stick with well thought out camera apps that are developed and updated with the user in mind, and provide consistently good output.
But I do like to play. Some cool camera apps are Bluristic which seems to get the better of me, SWRLY, which is just plain fun, PortraitCam which is cool for, well, portraits, Hyperspectiv which is trippy, and Fluxu which is, let's say, interesting.
Wow. That's a lot...
After reading it it comes across as long-winded. I guess I’m just looking for that app that does everything with minimal touches.Thanks for sharing all that.
Given the camera apps you've tried, apparently you're still looking.After reading it it comes across as long-winded. I guess I’m just looking for that app that does everything with minimal touches.
I believe I’m settling on Camera+2 does pretty much everything in one place: even with some editing features in-appGiven the camera apps you've tried, apparently you're still looking.
I believe this says it better than I canI use Camera +. Is there a lot of added benefit to the upgrade to +2?
Oh my, that’s fabulous. Love it.
I’m still on the hunt too. I finally purchased PureShot which I have resisted for sometime because it’s seldom updated. Brian sings it’s praises. Well, I was pleasantly surprised at how good it was in auto mode - the quality is excellent. I love the big orange button. The only thing I don’t like is that it doesn’t seem to have the x2 button for zoom and when you zoom in hastily with two fingers you don’t always know how much you have zoomed without checking on the screen. I find some of the manual modes a bit tricky. When you switch to a manual mode, it doesn’t keep the settings that it had in auto mode that you can then just adjust. The settings change completely so you have to start from scratch. Strangely enough I can see myself using this just for auto!Given the camera apps you've tried, apparently you're still looking.
AWE-SOME-SAUCE.
Here's some back story. The weekend before last Dawn bought a truckload of flowers and processed them after she was invited to participate in The Big Fake Wedding on Tuesday in Atlanta. Monday night our A/C died. I had purchased a portable unit some time back to place in our guest bathroom for flower storage: they like to be between 44 and 50F. I bought a CoolBot thermostat which takes domestic units to places they normally never goAWE-SOME-SAUCE.
