Drop the 'Digital'
DROP THE DIGITAL FROM PHOTOGRAPHY
WEDNESDAY - 10TH OF NOVEMBER, 2010I heard it again yesterday for the billionth time: “Digital Photography”. Isn’t it time we drop the word ‘digital’?
Seems we’ve managed to drop the “electric” from “electric guitar” in common parlance.
We found it easy to drop the word “acrylic” from “acrylic painting” when that came on the scene with oils.
We quickly ditched the “digital” from “digital music” when it took the lead over records and tapes and CDs.
I suppose by-and-large our industry has dropped the word, but given that digital and analog photography are fundamentally the same thing, isn’t it time we implore the rest of the world to assimilate the term “digital photography” back into “photography” as a whole?

TiltShift Generator
Now, to the why.
Tilt shift Gen is not so much a picture TAKING application but more of a picture FIXING/EDITING app. It is simple, basic, and gives you the ability to take any picture you havein your mobile album, and make it awesome!
"There are controls for blur levels, color (saturation, brightness, contrast), and vignetting. Using any combination of these, you can create some beautiful effects and vintage style images."
If you don't already have this app on your iPhone, I suggest you rectify yourself!

Set it up as follows:
1. Sign in to your acount at http://picasaweb.google.com/.
2. Click the Settings link in the top-right corner.
3. On the General tab, in the 'Upload photos by email' section, check the box next to 'Allow me to upload photos by email.'
4. Enter a 'secret word,' 6-15 characters long. As you enter this word, an email address appears.
5. Click the Save changes button.
6. To email upload your photos, just attach them to an email message and send it to the newly-created address.
7. A new folder will be created in your Picasa web albums at this point called 'Drop Box'
This can be done with any mobile device that has e-mail, not just the iPhone.
Enjoy.
