This Photo Finally Sold Me On The Pro HDR iPhone App
I've been using the Pro HDR iphone app ( http://www.eyeappsllc.com ) for a few weeks now, giving it a fair shake before really commenting too much about it. The app certainly makes HDR simple. You take two photos in succession, one focused on a bright area, one on a dark area. It does its magic and gives you some fine tuning control over brightness, contrast, saturation and warmth. When you're happy, you hit save. Simple. Fast. In the moment.
In general, the app works great, if you align your images well. This can be difficult without a tripod attached to your iPhone. But this photo is what has finally sold me on the app. It was taken without a tripod. There is also NO WAY I could have captured this photo of my kids watching the sunset any other way. If you look at the two base photos you'll see why.

Just did three shots in my dark lounge and can't believe it. That is simply amazing!!! Best $2.49 I've spent!
