This is a collection of pieces of advice to make your everyday photos more enjoyable to look at; a little more with every post. These are only bits which do not claim to be complete, but are rather all you need to know at that moment.


I assume my readers are non-professionals who are interested in capturing their memories in the way they have experienced them, instead of how their camera device automatically suggests an output, thereby speaking of using anything from a mobile phone to an auto-set DSLR.

LEFT: Normal photo  RIGHT: HDR-enhanced with iOS 4.1
Yesterday Apple introduced iPod Nanos that look like Shuffles, iPod Shuffles that look like pocket change, iTunes that looks like Facebook, and best of all…
HDR in the iPhone camera app.
Basically, when you’ve got bright light in part of your shot that would results in blown our highlights, you turn on HDR. The camera takes 3 shots instead of one, and combines them to preserve details in dark ares and bright areas.
From these early demo shots, Apple’s implementation looks to be subtle and well-done.
