Love how you wade through the universe of apps and do the analysis to help me find the ones that will work best for me. Also love the community you’ve created for digital artists.

Love the clear explanations. The chance to win something and ofcourse the flickr showcases.

Now that is an original idea! Love it! this is an app I would really appreciate. if film weren’t so expensive to process ,I would have continued my interest in it. As a mobile photographer -the idea of exploring this would be thrilling. But it will be a while before I could afford it. Hint hint. 🙂
