How To Use Camera+: Photo Editing App

One of my Photography Resolutions this year was to learn how to use apps on mobile devices, i.e. my phone and the iPod Touch. I found out about Instagram and pretty much fell in love with it pretty quickly. But the one thing I don't love about Instagram is the limited filters and editing options.

One of the fabulous bloggers taking part in #Project366 is HPMcQ and she does some pretty fabulous things with her photos. I especially love this photo of hers, and she was kind enough to share her favourite photo editing app with me. It's called Camera+ and I love it.

I thought I'd share with you one way I've used it recently:

I ended up tranforming a below-average photo into something a lot more attractive with a few easy steps.

Still hate the camera on the iPod Touch though, which is why I take photos on my camera, e-mail them across and then edit them that way.

I bought this app and therefore I wasn't asked to blog about it, I wanted to show you how cool it is. Oh and if you fancy voting for me in the BritMums Snap Award, press the button below. Thanks!

The Gallery: Faces

That Sticky-Fingered minx Tara has done it again! Yet another theme to fox and baffle me:

I adore some of the portrait shots on there (Pinterest) – kids, grandparents, families, friends, strangers. People whose faces are steeped in history or children whose faces show potential and a lifetime ahead of them.

So this week's theme is simply: Faces.

And the reason it baffled me is because my photos for 'Inspiration' were photos of The Boy's face, grrr!

So for most of the day I've struggled, I've seen a few posts here and there and thought "oh, I wish I'd come up with that take!"and in all honesty I've been gutted that I couldn't think of some photos to use. I post so many every week with my 365 project that any I could use would have been seen before.

However, I've just been synching the iPod and came across some classics from my treasure pot. The Boy is rather fond of the front-facing lens on the camera function, and this is what I'll often find on there if he's been left alone with it:

It always makes me chuckle to look through the camera roll and see 4o-odd shots nearly all the same but with a changing facial expression, normally him laughing as he's realising what he's doing!

So I asked him to pull some different faces for me, and this is the result:

Which expressions do you think he's pretending to show?
