XP4N: I made a (photography) thing!

wim

That's great to know @Michael.
The vertical images here do require a lot of scrolling, so some may still wish to downsize them before posting.

@lsdphoto probably, though I’ve changed it since I think to low light…actually it’s saved in the exif, hadn’t noticed before… there’s a couple more I need to scale down for the forum, live the, remind of the tarkovsky Polaroids…

@dendy love that composite vibe. That’s how I write all my songs 😂

What are you doing, people? I needed to break my usual morning coffee tradition and leave a comment now! 🤦‍♂️😅

@Tarekith, @richardyot, 🤗 Respect! @brambos, You opened the season! 🦇 I’ll follow.
@lasselu, I see, you need him to be a king now. Well, fine by me, haha!

I wouldn’t worry too much about image size for my sake – a year or so ago I wrote a script which automatically downsizes large images periodically because it was filling up the drive. So all good now.

You are a true maecenas! You always manage to surprise me in a good way. 🫡

I kinda like the composite approach on how various images look together

That swan shot is magnificent! 🤩 Because of the fall foliage and orange leaves, the lake looks like it is on fire.

Out for a walk with my wife yesterday I suddenly stopped and whipped out my phone to take a carefully lined up shot of some cracks in the asphalt roadway. She about went out of her mind asking why. I just grinned and said "XP4N". She's still giving me strange looks.

I was wishing for something a bit more vivid and contrasty as well. Though for me particularly it's been interesting playing around on the light side of things for a change too. But yes, something a bit punchier would be cool too.

I hear you about the simplicity aspect too, that's what I like as well. I've tried a lot of camera apps on my ipHone that can do cool things, but I've learned I just like the simplicity aspect of things on my phone. Halide is very cool, but I still find I just like using the stock app and shooting RAW to keep things simple where I only have to focus on composition. XP4N takes that up another notch, and the unique aspect ratio really forces you to focus on things differently that you usually do shooting 2:3 or 4:3, etc.

I haven't been doing photography long, but it's an app that makes it feel new again too

Yay it works again.

Yes, storage costs money, and content stays here forever. So it only accumulates over time and costs only go up. Out of consideration for our host, we should take the trouble to reduce size of the photos before uploading.

Thanks, I changed to Chrome though 🤪 I’ll try to replace the ones I didn’t bother to resize in earlier posts.

I'm not sure what Chrome has to do with this? If you mean the shortcut app opening safari...

Yes, that was what I was referring to but mainly it was a: thank you. Why bother, I wonder now.

I'm not sure how my question was taken by you you in any negative way. I was probing to see if there was anything further I could do to help, if Chrome was a problem. Just to clarify, I wasn't being dismissive. Sorry if it sounded that way.
