Daily App Experiment #213: "Decay" - shot this during today's bike and photo ride. I ran the image through #decim8, to glitch it out, then processed it In #iDarkroom to add the aging and canvas textures. #appsperiment #daily_appsperiment

- this is a previously unposted shot from our recent #instawalksf ferry ride to Sausalito. I used #phototropedelic to tweak the image, then ran it through some additional clean up in #camera+. #daily_appsperiment #app

Daily App Experiment #172 "GB Rocker" - I used to love this app called GB Cam, but it got pulled from the app store because of a copyright claim from Nintendo. The developer has FINALLY re-released the app as "2Bit Camera". #2BitCam creates pixelized images, in the style of old Game Boy graphics. What makes this app so neat, are the options for turning on/off dithering, spacing, and even screen color (green vs b/w). For today's #appsperiment I took a shot of @crashfaster performing chip music (on his Game Boy) at #makerfaire and ran it through 2BitCam twice. The first time I used spacing with no dithering, and the second time I used dithering with no spacing. I then ran those two images through #TrueHDR and let it try to figure out which part of which image to use. Mostly it just used the spacing with no dithering. Final touch ups in Camera+, where I used the Chromakey filter for a much more authentic green screen look. #daily_appsperiment

Captured in Camera+. Run through Decim8 a few times for variations. Two variations blended back into the original with Image Blender. Result run through Camera+'s Clarify twice. The original was taken at the rest stop at Sunset Point a few months ago. I liked the bright yellow against the neutral rocks and blue sky.

while we were in New York, @crashfaster was giving me crap about a self portrait I posted. I guess he thought it looked kind of Glamour Shots-y, but I didn't think it was sexy enough so I added butterflies, bubbles, stars, soft focus, & lightning bolts to it :)

I used #PhotoStudio to do it all. They also had flames, but that would have just been tacky.

Daily App Experiment #136 "Rirrom" - shot with an iPhone, run two different times through #Phototropedelic, then layered in #DXP. #appsperiment #Daily_appsperiment

Yellow poppy captured in Camera+. Run through the Clarify filter 5 times. Created a ToonPaint version against the original and blended that back into the the clarified version with ImageBlender.

Daily App Experiment #222: "Revision"- I posed with @acarboni using the #popbooth app, then picked one of the panels and imported it into Camera+. In there, I saved five different versions (using various settings) and exported them separately. I then used #interlacer to mix this versions all together. #appsperiment #daily_appsperiment

Captured and edited with Camera+ then experimented on in Decim8

Daily App Experiment #194: "Re-rez" - I really like how this process turned out! I started by shooting two pics using the newly released #GeometricLens camera app, which "triangulates" images in real time. For this picture I took two shots of my morning cup of coffee. I tried to keep very still, but the shots had subtle differences. I then used #iCameraHDR to merge the two photos together, which mostly kept the triangles, with a few interesting hiccups and lots of smooth gradients in the triangles (instead of solid colors). I'll post a full "re-rez" how-to on www.ObjectiveScenes.com tomorrow. #appsperiment #daily_appsperiment

Captured in Camera+, run through Clarity filter 4 times. Cloned a spot fix with Image Blender, added a bit of Cross Processing with Camera+ and then used Path's new Depth filter to bring some focus to the towers and car on the road. I like the hyper-realism of it.

Daily App Experiment #178: "Butters" - I created a light and a dark mix in #2BitCam, then merged them using #TrueHDR. That image was all straight and grid-like, so I used #FrontView to warp it a little, then did final processing in #PhotoForge2. #appsperiment #daily_appsperiment

Daily App Experiment #362 "Transit" - started by taking a shot with #lomora2, which is like a Hipstamatic, but with a few bugs. Ran it through #shockmypic for the cool lines, then used #psexpress's "smooth" effect to make the lines more subtle. #appsperiment #dail_appsperiment

Daily App Experiment #312 "Jpizzle" - I bumped into @troy and Jpeg, his doggy, today and took some shots. I ran this shot through #phototropedelic and #percolator then layered all the versions together using #filterstorm's selective color tool and radial layering tools. #appsperiment #daily_appsperiment

Daily App Experiment 393: "Flashjack" - I've been playing around lately with different ways to work a real world camera flash into my iPhone photography. My favorite method so far has been using the flash in combination with a long exposure app to leave the shutter open, but get a crisp moment of clarity with the pop of the flash. This certainly isn't new to photographers, but I'm really surprised by the variety of results I get between different apps. My favorite so far is #lightbomb, a social sharing app for light painting fans. I set it to capture for three seconds then pop off a flash with a colored filter over the light. I've posted a bunch of cool examples on www.objectivescenes.com too. #appsperiment #daily_appsperiment

Daily App Experiment 404: "Ghosts On The Tarmacs" - Revisiting an older photo. Shot at SFO using HDR, which caused the ghosting image on the right. Then run through #decim8 and re-layered over the original using #imageblender. #appsperiment #daily_appsperiment

This started off as a picture taken with the TrueHDR camera app, which someone was cool enough to show me at last night's Instameet, but then I remembered I wanted to mess around with DotCamera some more. So I took the her pic, ran it through DotCamera once, then rotated the original (using Camera+) and ran it through again. Then I brought the original, horizontal, and vertical images together using the Juxtaposer app. The idea was to have a different effect for the foreground, the tagged wall, and the sky. To answer your question: yes it was a bit of work :)

 

Daily App Experiment #90: "Zed X'd" - portrait of @crashfaster that I ran through ZXCam, an app that replicates the image compression technique used in old ZX Spectrum computers. The effects were cool, but I wish the final exported image was higher res. These types of image look great with crisp edges. For the IG version I added the Earlybird filter. #daily_appsperiment #appsperiment #ZXCam

playing around with ideas for a new series. Shot and edited with my iPhone.

Daily App Experiment #211: "All Trains" - Though the iPhone's camera app is my favorite app for taking shots, I rarely use it's built in HDR mode. Today I cane across a cool, if somewhat subtle, photo hack... When using Camera's HDR mode you'll actually get two shots, an original and an HDR composite. These shots can later be imported into your favorite HDR app (I use #TrueHDR) later. So basically you are HDR-ing an HDR image. The advantage of this is two fold: it's an easy way to quickly take shots for later HDR editing in other apps and the results seem pretty good. Not one of my weirder #daily_appsperiment projects, but I feel like I learned something from it. #appsperiment

Daily App Experiment #300 "767-300er" - My 300th #daily_appsperiment!

65 more days to go before my year long project is complete, or

whatever... Today's #appsperiment is one of my most heavily edited

pieces I've done yet. As such, I've decided to not write a how to,

rather I'm going to post a list of apps used. Camera+, #biglens,

#Noir, #trueHDR, #scratchcam, #decim8, #artistaoil, and #filterstorm.

I shot the #bathroomselfportrait on the flight yesterday, and spent an

hour OVEREDITING it until we landed in NYC. I try to keep my hacks

pretty simple, but today's experiment was all about seeing what

happens when I keep going and going.

- This week I'm posting a different #daily_appsperiment with the same source image of the moon that I shot on Friday night. Today's #appsperiment was created with the HalfTone app. They added some new settings that allows you control the size of the dots as well as their opacity.

Daily App Experiment #114: "Super Moon" - Last week I posted a series of #daily_appsperiment photos that all used the same source image and just one effect on top. It was a ton of fun but just using one app a day was driving me nuts... there are so many c

Daily App Experiment #27: "Tune Paint" self portrait in the studio that I filtered with IG's X-Pro II then opened with tunePAINT, which renders "drawings" of photos.

Daily App Experiment 398: "The City" - ran this photo through #anticrop to "stretch" the photo for a better 4X3 crop, then pushed it through #instaCRT. Cropped that back to a square, then ran it through #osmoleaker two different times. Took those two versions and used #imageblender to layer them together. #appsperiment #daily_appsperiment

Daily App Experiment #299 "Carry Me" - had a great flight with plenty of time to experiment. I've been playing a lot lately with the idea of using stylistically different photos and assembling them as panoramas with #autostitch. For today's in-flight #appsperiment, I used every lens in my #hipstamatic bag to shot the same exact area over and ever again. Above is the result of 19 different lenses layered top of each other. #daily_appsperiment

Daily App Experiment #210: "Pop Art" - shot this originally with #Hipstamatic then brought it into Camera+ and opened the "I heart analog" filters. Rather than selecting a filter, I took a screenshot of the filter choices grid. I like combining apps, but I'm always stoked when an #appsperiment is so out of the ordinary that it requires a screenshot... It makes me feel so edgy;) #daily_appsperiment #bathroomselfportrait

I think #appsperiment is one of the keenest hashtags on the Instagram right now. I love seeing what other folks are doing with in-app photo alterations. For this photo I took 4 screen shots of pictures tagged with #appsperiment, then ran 'em through #iDroste, and assembled them in #Diptic (making heavy use of the mirror and rotate options.

Daily App Experiment #276 "Prospecting" - Today's #appsperiment is really just a test to see what happens if I ran a bunch of "detail enhancing" apps together to see what would happen. Could I combine multiple enhancements and still get a normal looking photo? I took this shot with Camera+ then used the Clarity filter to boost the details. I saved a light and a dark version of this image, then opened each of these images in #orasis and let it do it's detail enhancement thing. I then took these two Orisis images and merged them in #trueHDR. So I enhanced in Camera+, Orasis, and then TrueHDR, all in the hopes of getting a version of my original image that had more details, but wasn't totally blown out. BTW, if you like Clarity, you might dig Orasis. #daily_appsperiment

Poppy captured in Camera+. Tweaked for color and contrast in several tools in Snapseed. Used the Drama filter for several passes in Snapseed. Blended with a mask to darken the background in Image Blender then changed to black and white in Snapseed. Tweaked again with a darkness mask in Image Blender.

Daily App Experiment #167 "Hype Street" - I shot this picture using the #SynthCam app, which has a real unique way of creating a narrow depth of focus look, then I ran the image through #DotCam for pixelation. Finally brought it into Camera+ and used the Clarity setting along with the Lofi filter (at about %25 opacity) to just the colors pop a little more. #daily_appsperiment #appsperiment

Daily App Experiment #168: "Orientation" - Last night I gave a talk at #dorkbotsf on iPhone photography and my #daily_appsperiment project. I created this piece right before the talk just I could go through all the steps clearly on this style of workflow. For today's #appsperiment I shot a pic of my friend @ekai using my @Photojojo fisheye lens. I then ran that pic through #Percolator and ran it again in #ToonPaint. I then used the Masking filter in #DXP to have the Percolated areas come through the black areas. For final touch up, I used Camera+'s Clarify feature.

 

BTW, I gave a talk on iPhone photography, using Keynote on iPad, then played a music set on my iPhone. No laptops where injured during my #dorkbot preso :)

Hey, I'm throwing a "Surprise Party" in SF this Thursday (3/10/11) from 7pm-10pm. The folks from Cathead BBQ will be catering (bacon wrapped jalapeno poppers and pork sliders!!!). The catch is... I won't announce the location publicly until an hour before the party starts (hence the "surprise")... hope to see some Instagram friends there!

A pine tree outside my office captured in Camera+ and applied Clarify. Created red, purple and green tinted versions with different filters in Camera+. Ran each tinted version through Decim8 three times. Used Autostitch to merge the 9 results together. Used Snapseed to play with the contrast and saturation. Used Dynamic Light's Orton filter to make a soft focus version and partially blended that back into the Snapseed version in Image Blender.

- A photo of Josh Ellingson, run through the #MosiacArtist app and #ToonPaint then layered together in #DXP using the screen filter.

Desert landscape captured in Camera+ and enhanced with the Clarify filter. Color and contrast tweaked in Snapseed. Run through Decim8 several times to get a result with the "towers" on the left and another with the one on the right. Blended the two images with a bit of selective masking in Image Blender. I like the organic-ness and surreal-ness of the result!

Daily App Experiment #302 "Painted Lady" - This girl was making roses out of paper and glue at the East Bay Mini Maker Faire. I shot this pic with the regular camera app, then ran it through three different "painting" apps for different versions. I used #autopainter, #artistaoil & #artiststouch. I then used #juxtaposer to combine different parts of the different painted pics into one image. #appsperiment #daily_appsperiment

Daily App Experiment #139: "Everyday Day" - I've really been digging #Everyday, a photo app which helps you line up and take a similar photo (of your facehole or whatever) and then animate it like a stop motion movie. I've only got 30 photos so far, but I can't wait to see what the animation looks like after a year. Today I decided to take all my photos and do something weird with them. I tried Autostitching them all together, but that didn't work out... so then I layered all the photos in #DXP using the "Difference" filter. I actually got some neat results. Here is my favorite. #daily_appsperiment #appsperiment

Captured with Nightcap. Run through Clarity and Fashion filter in Camera+, then played with in Decim8 with the Veth and Precog1 filters. I have spent most of the afternoon playing with Decim8. It is a lot more fun than I was expecting it to be.

Daily App Experiment #204 "Transformer" - over by 24th street and Mission are about 40 stencils of Lou Reed on the ground. I used the #everyday photo app to tale pictures of all of them that would be lined up with each other, then used #interlacer to layer all the images together. #appsperiment #daily_appsperiment
