Gray’s Anatomy – ‘So Many Platforms, So Little Time’ – By Richard Gray
It’s Friday, so that means it’s Gray’s Anatomy! Each Friday, Richard Gray graces us with his humorous mobile photography column, Gray’s Anatomy and this week Richard humorously expresses his frustrations with platforms. Whether this is weather induced, who knows… we’ll let you decide but you’re sure to enjoy this. Over to you Richard (forward by Joanne Carter). My head is spinning. And it’s not because of the heatwave we’re having in the UK at the moment. I’ve just come back from a small visit to Google+. I’d been looking for the digital whereabouts of France Freeman who was recently featured on the App Whisperer. I loved her Slow Shutter…

Don’t miss this – over to you Richard (forward by Joanne Carter). ‘As my train pulled out of Euston station, I lost my patience. Tap, tap, tap, set all default preferences in apps, yeah, why not, nothing else seems to be working.

Gray’s Anatomy – At The Android Party – By Richard Gray
One of the first things I did after setting up my new Galaxy was to check out the photo apps available on Android. Of all my friends’ reservations about THE MOVE, this was the one that came up the most. It was a bit like going to a party and looking around the room for familiar faces. Ah Snapseed old chum, good to see you! But there’s something different about you, Snap. Like you’ve got your tie on too tight. Oh right, you downsized on Android. Can you get pills for that? OK, but you’ve got more energy. That’s nice. Other friendly faces in the crowd were Touch Retouch (thank…

Gray’s Anatomy – Changing My Religion – By Richard Gray
Readers of my last column will know I’ve been thinking about switching to Android. Jokingly in one of my recent iPhone photography classes, I said to people: “I’m thinking of going over to the dark side”. I thought it would get a bit of a laugh, but the faces that greeted me weren’t all smiling. Some seemed concerned for my well-being, as if I might have been taking drugs. On others, jaws dropped wordlessly. Others seemed to be accusing me of betrayal. Judas. Admittedly, there’s a clue in the name of this class that might mean people have a certain prejudice. Even my wife looked at me when she realised…

Gray’s Anatomy – ‘Time for a (big) change?’ – By Richard Gray
My eyes have been struggling with the small iPhone screen. After a long scribble session with PS Touch or some intricate masking on Photo Wizard, I find myself slightly bleary-eyed. I think I need more real estate on my screen. And I admit, with my iphone contract coming up for renewal, I have been looking at the “larger” options. And in a world where the big corporations know everything about us, barely a day has gone by when I haven’t received some sort of overture from one of the world’s leading phone manufacturers or networks. Some of the approaches have been quite discrete. I know how these sort of…

Gray’s Anatomy – The Royal Society for iPhoneographers – By Richard Gray
There’s a huge building on London’s very salubrious Piccadilly which used to be the home of the Royal Institute for Painters in Water Colors. I know this because the words “The Royal Institute for Painters in Water Colors” are written in large stone letters across the top of the building. People sometimes say of something they’re not quite sure about: it’s not set in stone. The Painters in Water Colors were obviously quite sure of themselves when they moved in and so they decided, yes, let’s set the name in stone. Or perhaps their decision was motivated more by their determination to be considered a serious art form. The Royal…
