Color Lake Tutorial – Creating A Digital Collage
A new app in my collection is Color Lake that claims you can…”create your own magic with natural effects.” And indeed you can…adding ripple effects along with rain and snow. You can also adjust the overall tone of your image using several filters built into the app. In this tutorial I do use several other apps to first put together a simple collage that is then tied together and enhanced with the wonderful effects provided by Color Lake! Let’s get started… About The Author David worked at a truck stop and as a janitor to put himself through college. A couple of years at a small ad agency convinced…
Image Blender Tutorial – Using Image Blender To Create Your Own Stunning Collage
Image Blender can be used in a variety of ways, but the easiest and the main goal of the app is to get the right amount of an effect in a minimalistic way. Image Blender contains 18 different modes for blending your images. All of them will result in different effects. Even though Image Blender only allows you to work with two images at a time, with it’s flatten function you can build layer upon layer to create any possible of combinations. In this tutorial I will show you how I used four different images to tell a story through a digital collage. (Just a quick note before I get…
Image Blender Tutorial – ‘Creating A Digital Collage’
Image Blender, created by Johan Andersson, is best described by the developer: “This is a simple and clean application with a single purpose, blending together images. You can use multiple blending modes like Multiply, Overlay, Screen and many more.” It is a bit more than just this….”You can move, rotate, resize and mask the top image by choosing two images and tapping the preview.” Even though Image Blender only allows you to work with two images at a time, with it’s flatten function you can build layer upon layer to create any possible of combinations. In this tutorial I will show you how I used four different images to create…
Olloclip Tutorial – Creating Abstract Images With The Olloclip Macro Lens
The Olloclip lens system consists of three lenses. A wide-angle, fish-eye and a macro lens. The macro lens magnifies your image roughly around ten times. It allows you to get close to focus on your subjects with your iPhone, usually within 12 to 15 mm of your subject. My instructions for this tutorial sounded like something from Mission Impossible….. “Mr. Hayes, should you accept this assignment you must create abstract images using only the Olloclip macro lens. Your images must show what is possible with this lens and not rely on your skills with apps….” (sorry about that David, actually sounds a bit like a James Bond assignment, J). Okay…I’m…
Olloclip Tutorial – How To Use The Olloclip For Product Photography
The Olloclip lens system consists of three lenses. A wide-angle, fish-eye and a macro lens. In this tutorial we demonstrate how to create product photography shots using the macro lens of the Olloclip to enable you to sell items on ebay , Etsy or for insurance purposes. Many of us sell online…whether it’s on Etsy, Ebay, or elsewhere…and know the importance of good images when it comes to selling your item. Not only do you want your “product” to stand out from all the others, you also want to make sure the prospective buyer knows what they are buying. This is particularly important if the product is a “vintage” item…
Wood Camera – iPhone Photography Tutorial – How To Create A Dynamic Image – Part 2

Alien Sky – iPhone Photography Tutorial
There’s a new kid on the block from BrainFeverMedia, the developers of LensLight and LensFlare….Alien Sky. With this app one can, as the makers put it, “…create fantastic and futuristic visions…” through the use of the app’s collection of space objects and lens flares. The interface of Alien Sky is just like LensLight and LensFlare so if you are familiar with these, than using Alien Sky will be fairly straightforward. What I would like to do in this tutorial is to give you a quick introduction of how this app works…and then show you how I built my own otherworldly image. So let’s begin… If you haven’t yet picked up…
