Tilt Shift Generator for iPhone and iPad
Photo editing apps for the iPhone and iPad are becoming increasingly popular these days. After all, they’re a great way to express your photographic creativity, even when you’re not out shooting photos. Got a couple of hours to kill at the airport? Why not edit a few photos and share them with friends. Burned out from doing image edits and resizes on that huge batch of wedding or commercial photos that you shot the other day? Take a breather and fool around with some fun photos to break the monotony.
Here are three fun iPhone photography apps that are sure to spark some creativity, and at the very least, give you some fun visual candy while you’re waiting for those hi res images to upload to your client’s ftp site.
TiltShift Generator: Nothing changes things up like slapping on a tilt shift lens or a Lensbaby. Now you can manipulate focus, apply radical depth of field effects and recreate that incredibly stylized look to images that are stored on your iPhone’s camera roll. Also works on the iPad, which I’m sure looks great on the bigger screen. They even have a web version of the app that you can try out for free.
