Mobile Photography – ‘Spotlight’ – New Section – with Susan Rennie – TheAppWhisperer
I am delighted to launch a new section to TheAppWhisperer today, entitled ‘Spotlight’ – I, like many have been inspired by the creative vision of Susan Rennie’s cafe portraiture photographs. Rennie has been building a steady pictorial record of candid images and each time I view one, it stops me and makes me think… I love that! I view a lot of images everyday, it takes a lot to stop me. In fact, the images that Rennie has captured made me think very deeply one night recently, so much so, that I was inspired to create this new monthly series, Spotlight, where I will feature one mobile photographer or mobile…

For many iPhoneographers, Snapseed (by Google) is an integral part of their workflow. A few taps and swipes and their images get the adjustments and pop they need. Even digital artists can add sharpening or a pop of color in mere seconds with this free app. When an app is woven that tightly into their everyday work, it’s natural to look at a complete rewrite of the user interface with trepidation. Luckily, Snapseed’s new version, 2.0, still works the same as it did. It looks totally different, without the large boxes that cut down the amount of workspace. But when it comes down to how you work the controls, nothing…

Over the past two years, sharing their passion for iPhone photography in social media both Meri Walker (aka iPhoneArtGirl) and Annie Helmsworth (aka Elfin Kennel), developed a deep connection.
