Streets Ahead Interview: Dani Salvadori – Mobile Street Photography
This week, the Women’s Street Photography Collective (Streets Ahead) is pleased and honored to feature Dani Salvadori in our interview segment. Her street photography varies from urban city scenes to beach life. As a keen observer of people, Dani has been able to capture the interaction – people’s behaviour and how they relate to each other and the environment that they are in.

Streets Ahead Interview: Jennifer Sharpe
This week, the Women’s Mobile Street Photography Collective (Streets Ahead) is pleased and honored to feature Jennifer Sharpe in our interview segment. Many of you may know Jennifer from iPhoneArt (IPA) and Flickr. She goes by the name “Odilonvert” Now, if you’re like me… you’re probably asking yourself “What does Odilonvert mean?” Well, here is the answer: “Odilon is inspired by Odilon Redon (a French painter/artist from the 2nd half of the 1800’s) and “vert” means “green.” Ahhhh… once I learned this… I found myself looking at Jennifer’s work with a new set of eyes.

Official Statement From GhostBird Software Regarding Yahoo! Acquisition
Yesterday we announced that Yahoo! had purchased the developers of Kitcam and PhotoForge2 apps in order to strengthen photo editing and filter options for Flickr. We requested additional information from GhostBird and have published their official response below. The main point being really, is that if you have KitCam or PhotoForge2 apps on your devices, you will be able to continue to use them in their current versions.

Yahoo! Picks Up KitCam and PhotoForge To Strengthen Flickr
KitCam and PhotoForge have long been favorite apps of many iPhone photographers – sadly these apps are no longer available or at least currently available in the Apple App store as Yahoo! has acquired the developers – GhostBird. Ever since Flickr upgraded their photo sharing site they’ve been on the look out to offer more, they were seriously lacking in the photo editing space and by picking up PhotoForge they can fill that niche very nicely. KitCam too is/was a fabulous filter app, so it looks like the entire GhostBird portfolio and their team have been gobbled up. We have requested additional information and at soon as that’s forthcoming we’ll…
