I make the photo app @aphera, and sometimes photos

Bryce Canyon, 2024

An incredible place, but the photos never worked for me. The colors are so intense and out of control. But a square crop and softer edit with @aphera feels great.

Berkeley walk in evening light. @aphera colors ❤️

Today was that part of the development cycle where the big thing is done and I have enough brain space to knock out lots of little things.

This time the big thing was a foundational UI change plus performance work. Moving through images and modes in @aphera is much smoother.

(peek at that new ui)

I got a new camera and I made a photo app so expect more photos ok?

Neighborhood walk snapshots, really digging this Fuji GFX RF. First new camera since 2018? And @aphera making it look so good.

This was a test shot, just making sure I was ready.

Two minutes later my son would be playing tenor sax on Charlie Parker's Donna Lee. Ten minutes later he would have a medal for his excellent solo work.

I keep coming back to this image, I don't know why.

Last year when we popped by Usal Beach at the end of an epic Lost Coast drive.
Another one that one caught my eye tonight with the Chronostasis look in @aphera
Giving @aphera a little test run after several weeks of work. Imported 250 100 MP files from a GFX 100s, culled and edited a few and exported to share. Feeling fast and smooth all around! The new culling workflow and grid view are such a great upgrade.

Ha just two days ago I figured this out to include keyboard shortcuts consistently in @aphera tooltips.

Some truly wonderful information in the referenced post and Apple docs.

Lunchtime edit: Azores, 2025.

Made with @aphera using the Gambar look, bit of Balance adjustments. That's it.
