gorillacam iphone ap

gorillacam ap
This ap brings a ton of features to iPhone that Apple never did. Most functions work pretty well. It's a teaser for the gorillamobile tripod, which looks clunky to me. Major drawback? iPhone only.

Bokeh, here bokeh!

create those great soft shape light effects
Now, this is really old school. See the cute heart-shaped lights around the dog? It's not just because you love dogs, it's an effect that you can do yourself. You just need a pair of scissors or a punch, and two exposures of the same content. The folks at DIY Photography will show you how.

use your cameraphone to protect yourself from unscrupulous landlords

bottle lights
You've got your phone in your pocket when you move in...take pictures of everything. Yes everything! to document the condition the place is in when you took posession. And don't forget that you've got your phone in your pocket when you move out. Same thing. Take pictures of everything once the place is empty.
