Today's photo was taken at Hawkesbury Junction near to the Sutton Stop lock. The view is looking over towards Coventry Canal (under the Bridge) from the end of the Oxford Canal.
The photo was taken using the app ExposerGL on my iPhone 6.
First I used the app Filterstorm Neue to edit the image. I used the app to apply some Clarity. Then I added the Amatorka filter. Next I used Mextures to add the Darker Days preset by Ryan Olde. I then used the app Painteresque to add a custom version of the Painteresque 2 preset. Finally I used PhotoToaster to add the Tuneup preset, the vibrant FX, a medium dark Vignette. I then added the Canvas texture and the Charcoal frame.
Last night's sunset timelapse over the Charles River in Cambridge MA. This bridge over the river is right by Harvard, at Riverbend Park. I set up my tripod on the bridge railing to watch the sunset.
This time, I set up both tripods - iPhone and Sony Nex 5T. And its a good thing I did! Because, after watching this spectacular sunset get recorded on both devices, my phone ran out of batteries and lost the whole thing. (I had plugged in my backup charger but not started it charging properly, so it was my own fault, but still - timelapse apps really ought to have an auto-save feature. I'm looking at you, iLapse.) So, that was disappointing, and I was worried because often the iPhone timelapse actually comes out much better than the one from the Sony - the iPhone often does a better job avoiding the "flickering" that comes from adjusting to the changing lighting conditions.
But, it looks like I lucked out, and this video from the Sony Nex doesn't have any big flickering either. I used Sony's timelapse app, taking a photo every 3 seconds in Program mode, and put them together at 30fps using Zietraffer on my computer.
I also cropped all the frames first in Aperture to zoom in on the part with the most action (and did some other minor adjusting to the batch) - since Aperture is getting discontinued and Apple Photos can't do that, any advice on a photo program that will be able to do big batch processing like that for me in the long run, once Aperture is gone? This is made from 810 frames, it wouldn't be realisistic to edit each one!
I planned out this location using The Photographer's Epehemeris to see where I could get a good view of the angle on the setting sun, and I also used their Skyfire prediction to see the sunset prediction was 80% for last night. (Also looking out the window made me think the sunset would be great - but you'd be surprised how often the sunset looks like it will be great an hour before and then all the clouds are gone by sunset.)
This was a full moon-set I took on Sunday morning. I used PlanIt app to calculate the camera spot, so the setting full moon will align with coit tower at some point. I used my second camera to take a time-lapse to record the whole process. And here is a short timelapse consist of 200 pictures before and after my final shot:
There are so many alternations on full moon pictures right now in photography community, since photoshop app is making the alternation much easier than before. However, I feel more joyful and satisfactory when I am doing the real full moon shooting and when everything is moving as my prediction.
All elements shot with an iPhone6 using ProCamera app.
Edited on iPad with Snapseed and Mextures apps.
