Tiny Tip – Remove Backgrounds with remove.bg

One of the most challenging things in photo manipulation is pulling people out of a photo. Sometimes it’s to make beautiful artwork, sometimes you just want to make something funny. In any case, it’s hard to do without a great deal of time and effort. Tools like Affinity Photo make it easier where you do […]

NC #709 Hydra HDR App, CalDigit TS3+ Thunderbolt 3 Dock, Power of AirPlay 2

We’ll start with some corrections of my Epson ES-300W review, then I’ll brag about my ScreenCasts Online tutorial about OmniDiskSweeper and GrandPerspective, and my appearance on Let’s Talk Apple. Finally I’ll get into new content by telling you about an HDR app called Hydra from Creaceed. I’ve got a review of my new favorite Thunderbolt […]

Hydra HDR App for macOS

Hydra HDR Have you ever noticed that when you look at a beautiful scene, and then take a photograph of that same scene only to find there are dark shadows with no detail, or those puffy white clouds are all one continuous blob of white? That’s because our eyes can perceive a high dynamic range […]

NC #703 HashPhotos on SCO, TCL Monitor and Bias Lighting, Choosing Your Activity Goal, Wonky Wifi Testing

I’m super excited about my latest tutorial on ScreenCasts Online about HashPhotos. In Chit Chat Across the Pond I interviewed a former NASA engineer turned science fiction author named Darren Beyer. George from Tulsa brings us his success story with a TCL Monitor and bias lighting. Then we’ll go through the answers you gave to […]

HashPhotos Tutorial on ScreenCasts Online

Back in June, I told you about an awesome app for iOS called HashPhotos. I like to think of HashPhotos as a better front-end GUI to your Apple Photos Library. My blog post was pretty in depth, but it turns out there’s a ton more cool stuff that it can do than I realized at […]

iPhone X vs XS Cameras Compared – Can You Justify the Upgrade?

As you may recall, Steve and I both upgraded from the iPhone X to the iPhone XS. We justified such silliness by promising our daughter Lindsay and her husband Nolan that they could have our iPhones X. Lindsay’s iPhone 7 Plus was fine, but she really wanted Animoji. But Nolan’s phone was an iPhone 6 […]

Retouch Your Photos with TouchRetouch for iOS

Now that we take so many of our photos with our mobile devices, it’s even more important that we have good editing tools that fit the interface of a mobile operating system. You know I’m wild about Affinity Photo for iPad but it’s a sledgehammer of an app. Sometimes you just need to fix a […]

Batch Resize, Rename, and Watermark Images with PhotoBulk for macOS

Today everyone can be a great photographer, simply armed with a good phone camera. You may not care about your photos and only take them for your own enjoyment, or you might be quite serious about your photography. If you’re in the latter camp, you take great care to get the lighting right, to frame […]

NC #684 MacBook Keyboard, HashPhotos, Security Bits

Thanks for giving us a few extra days with Steve’s dad before publishing the show. We’ll start out with a rant by me against everyone who has declared the butterfly keyboard on the newer MacBooks as bad, then I’ll tell you about an amazing photo app for iOS called HashPhotos from BeyondF. Bart is back […]

HashPhotos for iOS is Everything Apple Photos Should Be

I’ve got a lot of photos. And by a lot, I mean 72,928 of them in Apple Photos. While I’m quite fond of Apple Photos, I’m annoyed by a few things. It’s pretty slow on the Mac (I can’t imagine why) and the iOS app is pretty limited in what you can do with it. […]
