Review: VSCO photo editing app

this app can downloaded in the google play store or the apple app store.  it is very similar to Instagram in the fact that you can make an account and post up (typically edited) pictures to your profile.  with this app though, you can just edit photos without an account and save them to your phone that way which is the route i choose to take.  some pros about this app are that there are many aspects of photos you can choose to alter, there are a variety of unique filters to choose from (and how strong you want them to appear), that the images will instantly save to your phone, and that it is not based off of likes and comments but more focused on "artsy" photos.  some cons would be that sometimes you cant get the picture the way you want (which can be fixed with experience), another would be that many filters are locked unless you are willing to pay to unlock them.  a con (like listed in the pros) is that there aren't lots of likes and comments going around, it all depends on perspective.  here are some VSCO before and after images:

here are two edits for the same image just showing some of the different routes one can take.

i personally enjoy the editing process and seeing the before and after images.  i go to the app for many of my pictures and like play around with them:)  i recommend giving it a try--leave a comment on what you think of the app or your favorite editing app!

capture moments through different lenses

I PHONE i phones have a series of different filters that will bring out and add different colors to your image.  they also offer the option of different lenses.  some examples are normal "photo" mode there is also a "portrait", "square", "pano" modes that may be appropriate at any given time.   these photos are both taken on an apple iPhone 7 plus in the instant filter.  the photo on the right was taken in portrait mode.  portrait mode blurs the background so that all the focus goes toward the subject, that is then the only thing the eye focuses on.   among the nine filters apple offers there are three black and white options.  each one has different aspects of light and dark that can be fitting for one photo, but not so much the next.                          here is an example of one picture in the three apple black and white filters.  the filters from lef...
