Number Eighty: The Colour Of Temptation

Today's piece first started out as a photograph of an apple I took in the late summer using SynthCam, an app for taking photos with a shallow depth of field. I am not terribly good at using this app, unfortunately, but come back to it every so often. This was one of the rare ones that I was pleased with although the colour of the apple didn't contrast with the green of the grass enough for my tastes, staying a kind of washed-out pinkish-red.

It wasn't until I downloaded Color Effects that was able to give the apple the colour I wanted without messing with the green of the grass. Color Effects has replaced Dash Of Color for my colour isolation needs. It is far less buggy and has the option to recolour anything you want in any colour you want. I found when I played around with the app that I liked having just the re-coloured red apple against the black and white grass.

  1. My favorite color combination. Red, white and black along with the apple motif. I've been meaning to comment for sometime. I just love your project and look forward to it everyday. I've also enjoyed discovering new iPhone art apps. ArtStudio, MobileMonet and PhotoWizard are a few others that I use and recommend. Anyway, thank-you for posting my link, it was my pleasure to post yours.
