Aday.org - daily train commute to Manchester

I only had my Android phone with me for the shot, it was a 0.9 second exposure, taken with "camera fv5".

Some lighten was applied using the "LittlePhoto" app.

The shot was taken at 9.52am 15th May, 2012.

Statue miniatures in Manchester

I came across loads of these tiny clay statues on the floor in Albert Square, Manchester today, anyone know what they are, or even for?

They were placed around one of the main statutes in the square, which coincided with the private hire taxis protest at midday.

Android app "Afterfocus" for selective DOF (depth of field).

Take a look at "AfterFocus"

Android app "Afterfocus" for selective DOF (depth of field).

A great little FREE app that gives you the ability to mark out regions in a picture that you want out of focus.

This means you can give your images to look and feel of images taken on a more expensive fast lens with a wide aperture.

It has the added bonus of giving you the ability to apply some of those instagram style preset filters for added mood or feeling.

A simple idea, brilliantly executed, definitely one to download if you enjoy taking pictures, and giving them something extra, so they stand it from the crowd.

"The thing is, I wouldn't worry about trying to achieve a certain percentage rate of keepers. Photography is an art, it shouldn't be consistent. Plus don't think that you have to attaint pro-like status because they would tell you that you should take as many photos as you can. Don't worry about how many photos you take, only worry when you aren't taking any at all."
