Like A Frame 4.3.0 is now released which introduces two major updates, both of which I have been wanting to implement for quite some time. You can now undo/redo the edits you have made to the composition as well as add textured canvas backgrounds with shading for more presentation options. Download Like A Frame here on the iOS App Store.
Read MoreIntroducing Like A Frame Version 4.1!
This is a big update bringing a long requested feature, text layers. Along with up to four photo frame layers, you can now add text layers with a total of 10 combined. Text layers can use any font on your device with bold and italic styling as well as any colour. Once composed, use drag, pinch and rotation gestures to move the text into the position you want. Double tap to change the text alignment.
Read MoreI sold my Fujifilm X-Pro3 for a Sony A7CR and a Sony 40mm F2.5 G lens, perhaps the last camera I will need. I know, it’s a bold statement. I wanted more and I know I shouldn’t.
My trek along the Tasmanian Overland Track was approaching and I felt that I would prefer to do the seven day alpine trek with a higher resolution full-frame camera, so I traded out my entire Fujifilm X-Pro3 kit for the Sony A7CR camera and the compact Sony 40mm F2.5 G lens.
Read MoreIn 2017, I produced a small body of street photography work which I was really proud of. Shot on Kodak TRI-X 400 black and white film using the Leica M7 and Voigtländer 35mm F1.7 Ultron prime lens, I eventually showed this series of photographs in my first photo gallery at a former film lab called Racquet Film in Brisbane City.
Read MoreLike A Frame 3.6 has been released which adds a new setting called Custom Aspect Ratios. You can now add your own custom aspect ratios to a list that is included in the Canvas, Photo Frame and Photo Crop composition settings. Add a 2.35:1 aspect ratio like widescreen cinema or maybe an old school film format that you want to emulate.
Read MoreLike A Frame 3.3 has been released which finally realises some of the core compositional features I’ve been wanting to implement for a long time. The update is free and most users should see it automatically. Introducing Matte Bevel and Frame Ratio!
Read MoreIt’s finally here! Version 3.1 has been released onto the iOS App Store, introducing up to four layers of compositions on one canvas, a new internal shadow setting, a redesigned tools menu, rewritten rendering engine and bug fixes and improvements across the board.
The app’s $1.99 AUD / 99c USD price point remains and existing Like A Frame users will get the upgrade for free (open the App Store app to update via your profile screen).
Read MoreMatting and framing photos results in a more polished, professional look. That holds true in the digital realm as well, and the Like A Frame app for iOS makes it easy to do just that. Now it is localised for Spanish users and includes a new quick Resize Photo feature for sharing images.
Read MoreWell, tick that off the bucket list. At the start of the year, I and five other friends journeyed through the Tasmanian wilderness on the famous Overland Track, something I’d had in my to-do list for a long time, although I hadn’t thought of actually planning to do it any time soon.
Read MoreFor the longest time I had the desire to write a novel, to explore the inner workings of characters and create a world around them that could be believable, but I struggled for a long time to write more than a standalone chapter with vague plot ideas. I wrote a small handful of short one or two page scenes when I was younger, some related to my core ideas, some independent, but that was the extent of my writing.
Read MoreI also just came back from a short solo road trip to Warrumbungle National Park in inland New South Wales, to not only hike in the mountains but to see the stars out there.
Read MoreI spent some time in Cedar Creek bouldering and taking pictures as well as in Girraween National Park recently. Here’s a number of photographs from these two weekends.
Read MoreSummer has been quiet as usual on the photography front. I’ve was mostly waiting for my new Hyundai Staria Load van to arrive, which has! It’s great to be back on the road and to get the campervan project underway as soon as possible. Here’s a handful of rainforest photos from Mount Cordeaux and Mount Mee.
Read MoreIn the second week of November, I went on a little six day road trip down to the Blue Mountains to enjoy some solo camping in the Rav4 and relax with some long service leave. I only took a handful of proper photographs, instead opting to use my iPhone 14 Pro a bunch instead. Here are the photographs I took on the X-Pro3.
Read MoreRecently, I’ve been to Springbrook and Girraween National Park for hiking and camping adventures. Here’s a number of photos I’ve taken from those. Nothing gallery worthy, but just enjoying the practice.
