Snapseed for Mac

Snapseed for Mac

Notes: Snapseed is now available in the Mac App store.  A bit more expensive than the iPad app, but then again, most people don’t realize how expensive plugins cost for the various photo editing programs.  Very limited options in the desktop/notebook version, and the jpeg compression is set for small file sizes, but it does...

Fujifilm X100

After acquiring new gear, I like to take my own "product shots." This is the latest addition to the fleet, the Fujifilm X100. Even I get tired of all the clackety clacking that my various cameras make. It's refreshing to use a large sensor camera with a good lens, and whisper quiet...
