Pocket Camera

I always take my pocket camera on my walks.

A few months ago, I started taking 30-minute walks around my neighbourhood. I always bring my pocket camera. I use the native photo app, Halide by Lux, or Adobe Photoshop Lightroom Mobile app on my iPhone 11 Pro.

Halide is a powerful photography tool for mobile devices with advanced manual controls to fine-tune settings like focus, exposure, and ISO. It has an elegant user interface and high-quality image processing.

I subscribe to the Adobe Creative Cloud Photography suite for $10/month, giving me access to Lightroom, Lightroom Classic, Photoshop on macOS or iPad, and 20GB of cloud storage. I also get the mobile applications Photoshop Express and Lightroom Mobile.

Adobe Photoshop Lightroom Mobile is a pocket-friendly tool that packs powerful editing tools, RAW support, and seamless cloud integration. It allows me to capture, edit, and share stunning photos on the go.

Lepanthes Telipogoniflora Orchid

This is a follow-up to my previous blog entry on my Lepanthes Telipogoniflora orchid.

When I published my previous blog post, the Lepanthes Telipogoniflora flower had partially bloomed. However, it has now fully opened, revealing its distinct parabolic shape. Interestingly, the colours of the flowers differ from my initial expectations. Instead of the vibrant red in online photos, they possess a lovely orange-brown hue. Nevertheless, they remain remarkably beautiful.

I employed focus bracketing techniques to capture this image, starting from the tip of the Lepanthes Telipogoniflora's stamens.
