I agree, this will be a good contest. However, I am curious which editing apps you use on the ipad. I've never found one that I really like and I too have a gen 1 ipad, so the new iphoto app is null and void...

I've used a fair few over the last couple of years (my PC is ancient, takes forever to just do basic things like photo editing!).
Current favourite is Snapseed- some nice basic editing features, and very stable on the iPad1- only downside is it doesn't give you any options for saving at a higher resolution (but I guess this is why it IS so reliable on iPad1 ). Its nice and quick too. Pretty much all my shots from the last year or so I've edited on it.
Also quite like photogene- again is very stable and some good basic features, and gives you options for saving at differant resolutions.
Both are good for uploading straight to flickr etc...

Loads of others i'd used seemed to crash a lot as new updates came out with the launch of the iPad2 with its better memory- can't say im suprised iPhoto is not for the original iPad, but a shame none the less.

Thanks for the info, just downloaded the Snapspeed app and it works great! I've had the same issues with crashing apps too. It's like we're punished for not buying a new ipads every year... violent

I'm going to start shooting some squadts this weekend!!!

I agree there's definitely going to be some great stuff created as a result.

Thanks Ferg.

Had a little outing today took a bunch of shots with one squadt trying to pick and choose if i use one for this. liking the black and white look

smokebelch - the fact that you create all these pictures w/relatively "basic" tools just makes them that much more impressive!

Going to try to snap some pics today - I have access to a chemical plant, have a few ideas for some scenes. Need to get post count up though.

No.10 by smokebelch, on Flickr

Sorry to be flooding the comp already! Laughing

Has been really hard picking shots from the last couple of trips out for photos. Was shooting with B&W in mind, but some of the shots looked better for either being in colour, or having a some colour in them- still leaves plenty of stuff for the regular photo thread Very Happy

looking forward to seeing everyone elses entries.
