Meet The Authors

Hi! My name is David and I came from the City of Island Adventure, Surigao. I love the beauty of my place so as to capture its splendor, keep it in my album or share it to everyone to experience its bliss. To do this, I learned photography and searched techniques shared by people. I’m into portrait, landscape, scenic and nature photography. However, I am proud to say that I’m only using my Zenfone for it. Well, I can’t still afford some expensive professional cameras like you may have but I am happy I still got my phone to still enjoy taking pictures. Amazingly, it’s fun! So, if you want to know how to get creative and enjoy taking pictures with your smartphones, well, this blog is what it’s all about and I'll try my best to give you nice tips. Here, you will see all of my works and tricks on how to make it. I won't say I'm skilled enough but I'm sharing whatever I've learned from my friends and coaches. Enjoy!



Good day! I am Mae. I am a fan of mobile photography too. David and I have the same favorite hobby and so we became partners in this blog. After working hard at the office at day, I find blogging to be rewarding because it is about sharing experiences and learning from others. It would be a pleasure to share what I know about how to capture beautiful images also using only a smartphone. Happy reading!

How To Create A Black Background Photo

Image
Ever wonder how to create this? Let me show how to do it. First, take a good photo from your smartphone. You can think of any subject that you can find around your place.  Second, install Snapseed and VSCO apps to your mobile. These will be our apps for today. Third, be ready to use the Brush and Detail tools from Snapseed. For the Brush, use Dodge and Burn. After brushing black to everything around the subject, set the Structure from Detail tool to 15 or more, depends on how you want it. As for me, that would be enough to complete the black background. Don't forget to save. Fourth, we will use VSCO this time to finish the photo. Use one of the black and white filters to create a nice blend. or watch this video and follow the steps. Click the Full screen square button at the bottom right side of the video to enlarge it.

How To Capture That Moon?

Image
Imagine yourself taking a little break in your balcony, sky gazing and there’s…a big blue moon! That is a great sight! And you want to capture it but all you have is your smartphone. You want to take that shot anyway but all you got is this….a white dot.  And no matter how you zoom in your camera or change your position, you still got the same white dot. Wish you have a better picture to show? But there’s a little trick for that. I think no smartphone can capture the moon that big yet, maybe, because it needs better, bigger lenses. I had a similar incident like that before, though it was not a blue moon. On the same month of October last year, the news spread about the sight of the red moon, some people called it blood moon or hunter’s moon. We did saw that beautiful moon with our bare eyes but since we were still at work, we didn’t have the chance to take a picture. We want to remember that moment anyway so we decided to do moon gazing after work, though the moon had gone fart

How To Enhance A Mobile Photo's Color?

Image
After a week of stormy weather, I finally had a chance to go out and find something to capture for my picture gallery. Today's subject is a dry leaf that I found along the way. It has water drops on it, rain drops left by the storm. To get a clearer view of those drops, I need to bend and draw my Zenfone's camera closer to the subject. As you can see, only the nearest drops were focused while the other parts were slightly blurred. My camera at this time was set into Auto and automatically sets the focus of the subject when I draw the camera nearer or farther, thus setting the depth of field for the image. Depth of Field refers to the distance between the nearest and the farthest point in an image that still appears sharp. You can also set it manually in your smartphone if it has this feature and choose which area of the image you want it to focus. The color is kind of dull, isn't it? Let's enhance it a little. Time to open the SnapSeed app. To tune image: I
