How to Edit Cool Photos On iPhone


       If you think that being a good photograher only requires a professional, might as well expensive camera, a breathtaking view, and the right time, then you're probably wrong. Photo editing can be very important whether for a photographer or just for normal photo takers. In fact, photo editing can make a big difference on your photo even if you aren't a professional or you don't own a high resolution camera. It can be very useful for the selfie lovers too!
      Here are some of the pictures I took using only an iPhone and of course, with special editings using some photography apps.

     These are some of the apps that i used for photo-editing the pictures above.

This app is the ensential photo editor for any kind of photo. It can turn very ordinary pictures into those ones you've only seen it on magazines.  Vsco Camera contains great varity of filters and other editings.
This app is used generally for photo collage and special lighting or exposure effects.









This app is a very interesting and fancy blender that only blends two photos together partially yet using very smooth transition.






This app requires payment in order to download it but it is definately worth it if you want to create perfect cropping.

The making of this picture of the house with half in balck and white and another half in full colours involved two apps listed above: Vsco Camera & Mixar.
1) First, I opened Vsco Cam and inserted the origional pictur of the house. 
2) Next, I used two differet filters to create two different style of the house, in this case, I used filter LV1 to enhence the origional colour and for another one I used filter LV2 to create black&white effect. 
 
  3) After saving both photos to my camera roll, I then opened Mixar app. You will open up to the following page. From here you could insert the two photos you just saved by clicking the two circles at the bottom.
   4) By clicking the clock-like thing at the bottom right corner, you can adjust the specific part of the picture that you would like to be blended.

The picture of the Fiji water with a black and white backgrounded was made possible by using the Adobe Photoshop Mix & Picsart.

1) First of all, we need to create the background by using the collage function on Piscart.
2) Find two wallpaper-like picture, one completely white, another pure black.

3) Select collage-grid-squre, you will see the first grid with two rectangles in a squre.


4) Insert the plain black and white picture and adjust the border to 0. It will then create the speccial background. 
5) After you create the background, open the Adobe Photoshop Mix. Insert the background picture and the picture you want to cut out, in this case would be the Fiji water picture. 
6) After inserting both of your pictures, click the "cut out" selection on the bottom with a scissor sign. From here you could start cutting out the figure you desire. My suggestion would be try using the smart selection in which the system would autoatically detect the part of the picture you want to cut out. This will make everything much easier and faster.
7) This is what it looks like after you finish. Remember to save your picture to your camera roll after editing.
