You are truly a master when it comes to diversity and clarity of curatorial vision. It's never an easy balance between the poles of iPhoneography but you manage to strike it time and again. Kudos.

I agree. Using the more reliable Apple Camera (or another camera replacement app) can definitely save some grief. Thank you for sharing this one. =M= Great tip about the camera. I agree.

Invariably it WILL crash--right when you have that once-in-a-lifetime shot. Besides, it is soooo slow since the past few updates. meh. My #1 Instagram tip is to NEVER use the in-app camera.

I love the social aspect, definitely. Thanks again for the useful post Marty - greatly appreciated.

You recommend Phonto to add text. I took a look at it. Because I use A+Signature, Phonto is not needed for me but I'd like to bring your attention to A+Signature because it's really a cool app to add all sorts of hand drawn and hand written things to a photo which are all scalable and which can be saved in a library. You can change the level of opacity, line strength and color, outlining, shadow, and so on, plus A+Signature saves your photo in full resolution even if it's higher than the regular 3264x2448 of the iPhone4S. I personally prefer using A+Signature to add my copyright watermarks to me photos before publishing them on my blog. It might be a bit tricky to place such copyright info in a corner of a picture on the tiny iPhone screen but it's easier in landscape mode and a pleasure to use on the iPad. Enjoy ;-) Btw: I forgot something. You recommend Phonto to add text. I took a look at it.

Shooting in 1:1 format saves cropping time. - Squara, qbro, Lomora2, ScratchCam and PhotoToaster are some more of my favorite apps to use with Instagram. And yes, pictures made with the great Hipstamatic can also be used with Instagram. Tip: to use more than one of the Instagram effects on the same photo I switch my iPhone to airplane mode. That way, Instagram won't be able to connect for uploading your finished photo but saves a copy to upload it later. I then cancel the planned upload and reload the picture to apply a second effect. Because that crop and adjust frame in Instagram is a pain in the ass I prefer opening my photos with Squara, then transfer them to Instagram to make them fit in the frame just perfectly. You can find me on Instagram under #quaffit. My Blog about iPhoneography is at <a href="http://quaffit.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">http://quaffit.blogspot.com</a> Many thanks for your newsletter which is always a pleasure to read.

But every week it seems like your faved on Flickr series has less actual photography, and more images that are just combined/edited/created. It takes talent without a doubt. It's amazing art and I'm envious of the creativity involved. I'd personally love to see more actual photos people have taken.
