  From traditional to old chemical darkroom processes
This was a straight photo hand held with light from lamps.
This was changed into black and white with the Photofx app.
Using Photofx I then changed the image into an old darkroom process called Palladium. The use of apps continues to make the cell phone's digital darkroom exciting for me.

  Your cell phone camera is always with you? Use it!
Walking through a shopping center we saw this wall of paper roses. I had to catch the colors and shot shapes. This is an image thata with a little blur added becomes more of a mystery as to where and why.
Any place near an open filed or body of water or a high spot on a hill, becomes a viewing place for a morning sunrise. Now with daylight saving time we can experience more sunrises with our longer days. The colors always vary with the weather conditions.

  Some ask why HDR?
Straight image from iPhone Camera to computer to blog.
This image was taken in the iPhone app HDR Pro, processed in the cell phone moved to the computer for storage and into the blog. No Photoshop or computer work. True HDR is to capture the wide range of light as seen by your eyes. This HDR app shoots two separate images and then combines them together before saving.

  Two different iPhone apps for HDR
This app (iCamera HDR) on the auto mode had more control over the highlights. Two photos were taken, combined and then you get a series of sliders to adjust. This app has been updated with new software.
This photo was from (HDR Pro) app. It works very well. I did not have the same control over the bright lights. Both photos were taken in a coffee shop. Again, I used the auto mode. The app shot two photos and then combined them into one image. No post editing was done out side the cell phone.
