COLUMNS
Gray’s Anatomy – Wo ist mein Handy? – By Richard Gray
I hope this column doesn’t come across as too self-absorbed, but I will take the advice of someone on Twitter who recently said to me there was nothing wrong with celebrating one’s successes. Though on reflection, I’m not sure this is such a great success. I recently had the pleasure of being interviewed by leading German newspaper Bild about my iphoneography classes. In the article, I’m described as a Handy-Knipser and also (possibly) a Handy-Nutzer. I rather like these terms. The Handy-Knipser sounds a bit kinky, said one of my friends. But it reminded me of something I already knew from my previous job (I worked in a mainly German-speaking…
Streets Ahead – Visual Diary Article – ‘Setting The Stage’ – By Maddy McCoy
We’re delighted to publish in full a Visual Diary article by Maddy McCoy via our specialist dedicated Backspaces section, see here that compliments JQ’s and Maddy McCoy’s Streets Ahead Column with us. The concept of Streets Ahead is best expressed in their own words – “This column will provide a platform for discussion on the techniques, aesthetics, and goals that we, as women, bring to this art form. In addition to the weekly showcase, we have set up a dedicated Flickr group –see here. We also plan on featuring bimonthly interviews as well as sharing our own experiences and learning curves in mobile street photography. We will do this through a Visual Diary…

Technical Tutorial – ProCam: Night Mode
Recent updates to ProCam added its “ISO Boost” feature which when activated, will up the iPhone5’s maximum ISO from 800 to 3200. This is really helpful when shooting in low light environments. A real bonus with this app is its “Night Mode”! This allows you to reduce the shutter speed…and so more light is captured by your iPhone 5’s camera sensor. Using this with the “ISO Boost” gives you a lot more possibilities!! We have recently published some excellent technical tutorials to help you get the most from ProCam, to read those, go here. ProCam retails for $0.99/£0.69 and you can download it here. Let’s take a look…

Mobile Photography Tutorial – Using Layover and Diptic To Create A Composite Image
I’ve recently noticed that a number of the digital artists are creating some wonderful composite images using different frame-within-a-frame techniques. Seeing these images got me inspired to give this a try. While I know of one app that has several of its filters that will do this for you…as long as you’re willing to accept their formatting and effects. Instead of using this app, I decided to use Diptic and Layover to create my own composite image. If you haven’t tried Diptic or Layover yet, you can download them here: Diptic/$0.99/£0.69/download Layover/$0.99/£0.69/download Since I like challenges I also decided to use just one source image…and one that in…

Technical Tutorial – ProCam: Time-Lapse Mode
In this ProCam tutorial I’d like to take a look at a tucked away feature that this great camera app gives its users…and that’s its Time-Lapse Mode. While there any number of apps out there specially designed for time-lapse and/or stop action photography, its great to know that you can do this within the ProCam platform! Time-lapse photography is what is used to capture those great videos of clouds moving, flowers blooming, people and traffic on a busy street. It does take some pre-planning to do but once this is done, the results are pretty amazing. Make sure your iphone is fully charged or close to a power source so…

Gray’s Anatomy – what are you oggling at? – By Richard Gray
“This week saw the launch of Hipstamatic’s long-awaited photo-sharing app. And what have they decided to call their new app, I hear you ask? Well, no doubt after great investment in some expensive Los Angeles PR consultancy, they’ve settled on the name Oggl. OK, yes, like Flickr, Tumblr, Grmblr, they’ve missed out some letters. That’s the first five minutes of the consultant’s fee. But what about the actual meaning of the word. Or the things that people think of when they hear it. Did they road-test it in the UK? Possibly not. Did they even road-test it anywhere? Possibly not. The (presumably American) Urban Dictionary gives as an example of…
