I think you will enjoy this very much… (foreword by Joanne Carter) “LumaClip and LumaFX (released 2016) are two powerful iOS video apps they come highly recommended and are easy to use.

Read Jobe’s thoughts as he puts it through its paces (foreword by Joanne Carter). Take it away Jerry… “Like many of you, I have not totally abandoned the use of my DSLR (a Nikon, in my case).

We are delighted to publish Jerry Jobe’s latest mobile photography/art tutorial for our reading and viewing pleasure. This time Jobe takes a look at Snapseed but in a unique way. Read his thoughts as he puts it through its paces (foreword by Joanne Carter). Take it away Jerry… “I’m a relative newcomer to photography. Not in the sense of handling a camera; I’ve had cameras for decades that I used to capture snapshots. I am a newcomer in the sense that I have never had training, and that I realize that training helps you assess what you want from a shot, and how to get it. I consider the first…

New Year Resolutions have a long history, the Babylonians pledged to return borrowed objects and repay their debts at the start of each year, while the Romans kicked off January by making a vow to the god Janus (from whom the month takes its name).

In assessing my goals for the New Year, I don’t list tasks, I analyze the optimal approaches in reaching those goals, breaking…

Few Days Left to View the Mobile Photography & Art Exhibition at the Seoul Museum of Art
I hope you will recall my mobile photography and art Presentation in Seoul, South Korea in September this year. If not, please take a look here, also please take a look at the Showcase that I presented to the audience, with your art.

These are the images, I selected to exhibit, I was only asked for my own but I would not settle for that, I took what I could with me, here they are. Many…

Read his thoughts as he puts it through its paces (foreword by Joanne Carter). Take it away Jerry… Artoon retails for $1.99/£1.49 and you can download it here. “I’m rather fond of JixiPix apps in general, although there are some, like Fold Defy and Chalkspiration (covered back in May), that are so specialized as to be essentially useless. On the other hand, today’s app, Artoon, performs a task that I frequently wish to use in my artwork: creating a simple, flat image…
