iPad Photography Apps
I picked up an iPad a few weeks ago and have been exploring its possibilities. I have to say I’m pretty impressed so far. It’s simply amazing for looking at content, and is pretty bloody handy when it comes to creating it as well. There are some awesome apps out there which are great for photographers.
At some point I’ll write something about the apps I’ve been using, but in particular Snapseed and Flickr Studio.
I’ve attached an example of what you can do with Snapseed.

New South Wales Police maintained a strong presence throughout the day, and just before 2:00 on Sunday morning (November 6), the protesters were instructed to move on or face the possibility of arrest.
The protesters held out until the last minute before leaving the park. Members of the NSW Police Force followed the group for several blocks to ensure that they dispersed.
The rally was mostly peaceful, but tense. Six protesters were arrested for various offences during the day.

Pro-Refugee Rally in Sydney
SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA – The Refugee Action Coalition held a rally in support of refugees and asylum seekers outside the Villawood Immigration Detention Centre in Sydney today.
Protesters spoke out against the Gillard government’s “Malaysian solution” in which Australia will “swap” 800 refugees for 4000 asylum seekers already processed in Malaysia.
The crowd also voiced its opposition to the government’s policy of mandatory detention for refugees while their claims are assessed, a process which can take years.
Australian Minister for Immigration Chris Bowen is expected to announce details of the deal with Malaysia tomorrow.
