I don't have an iPhone, but I do have an iPod touch, which I sometimes use as an on-the-fly camera. I have played around with a few iOS camera programs, but never really did much with them, as my better photographs were not usually on my iPod. That all changed last week when I updated my iPod's OS, and found that with the new iCloud service, photo's moved seamlessly between my iPod and Aperture (Apple's pro version of iPhoto). When I set up iCloud, I thought it would be a nice way to cary around my pics, I never thought that I would integrate the iPod into my photo-editing process. 

That changed this morning when I came upon this guest post by photographer Robert Yaskovic on the excellent Fiberglass Manifesto blog. In the post, Robert outlined several iOS apps that he uses to process fishing pics he takes with his iPhone. While I don't take my iPod fishing, I was inspired to use some of his processes on my favorite fishing pics that I took with my waterproof digital camera.

Here are some of the pics I posted last friday, edited with Camera+, using Robert's tips.

As you can see from the sidebar, this blog recently became part of the Outdoor Blogger Network. Among many other things, the network periodically provides prompts for bloggers. The most recent photo prompt was for "your favorite outdoor place (landscape)". So here are two shots of the lower Stanislaus River, my favorite place to fish in winter. 

Working on a longer post about recent excursions to the lower Stanislaus, look for it next week.
