Short blurb on Mobile Photo editing and a Sample of mobile work.

Lately, society has shown a trend of using their mobile devices as their main source of computing and internet.  I love my desktop computer and the power that is behind it, but recently I have also been leaning heavier on using my Android device to do more.

I am an artist and a photographer and like many people, I am always on the go.  Quite often it isn't convenient for me to access my Canon DSLR or my desktop computer.  over the past couple of years I have been taking a lot more photos with my cell phone than I do with my DSLR camera.  I have also began adapting to more mobile means of editing these photos as well.  I use an Android device and I use the Samsung's Galaxy Note series.

The first app that I consider a "must have" for editing on the go is Snapseed.  The app was originally created by Nik Software. Nik was known for making amazing and powerful Photoshop plugins. Snapseed is currently owned by Google.  I feel it holds many of the best photoshop features with the incredibly user friendliness of your favorite iOS apps. It is a true competitor in the mobile photo editing market. Best of all, it's free! When I begin editing any photo on my phone, the first app I open is Snapseed. Most commonly I use it for touch ups and minor color adjustments, but if that isn't your thing they also offer filters, borders and many other internet favorites features.

There is no special order or apps to be used for photo creations and digital art.  The options are endless and depend on which creative direction you are taking. With that in mind, this short little blurb could quickly turn into a 10 page nightmare.  Therefore I will reserve my reviews for other digital manipulation apps for future posts.

First Throwback Thursday

I have seen a lot of people post an old pictures or content on Thursdays and call it "Throwback Thursday."  I usually do not participate in this, until now.  I recently came across a picture of myself in my early teen years and thought, this would be neat to post.  Naturally, the best way to post such an image would be as a "Throwback  Thursday" item.  I uploaded the image to Instagram.  Instagram is where I post most of my images. You can find me on Instagram under the Username ThomasHuntJr or just go to this address,  https://www.instagram.com/thomashuntjr/

I do not know how often I will do this, but stay tuned and you might be surprised.

Saint Patrick's Day 2016

I am well aware I am not in Ireland and have no cultural reasons to celebrate this holiday, but I'm American and won't turn down a reason to go out, drink and celebrate something.  Especially something that brings such wild festivities as this holiday.(at least as its celebrated in the U.S.)

This year I went to, what Oklahoma City calls, a block party.  This event was located in Bricktown, near downtown Oklahoma City for those of you don't know.  They sectioned off a fairly large parking lot and filled it with a stage, beer vendors and a variety of food trucks.  Of course several of these vendors provided green beer(their cheapest beer drowned in green food coloring).  I didn't catch the name of the band that was playing on stage, but they played pretty good background music.  I choked down 1 glass of the green swill they called beer.

 Surprisingly I enjoyed the food I ordered from the food truck. The name of the food Truck was PhillMeUp Cheesesteaks and you can find them on Twitter at @PhillMeUpOKC  As their name suggests, they make Philly Cheesesteaks.  The first thing that makes their cheesesteaks unique is they use Cheese Whiz.  That's right, cheese whiz, the spray cheese out of a can.  I was quite hesitant to order something that used spray can cheese, but I am will try almost anything at least once.  The cheese happened to mesh beautifully with the perfectly caramelized onions and the quality of that beautiful ribeye meat was magnificent.  This was undoubtedly the highlight of my day.  And although a little pricey, this sandwich tasted awesome and was quite filling.

The rest of the sights were as one would imagine, the area cluttered with stumbling idiots decked out in kilts and various green apparel and accessories. Of course, I was not going to leave the area without taking at least one photo of my adventure..
