Crop-N-Frame iPhone App by Freshair Software, a development and marketing partner of PictoColor, is a great way to give your iPhone photos a professional touch before sharing on Facebook.
It’s so easy to use Crop’n'Frame to quickly take a photo, crop it to zoom into the best part of the photo, enhance it with a frame and caption, and then save it or share it via email or Facebook.
Crop-N-Frame is great way to enhance your photos before uploading them to your favorite website or e-mailing them to your family and friends. Or take it along to the frame shop and use it to visualize how your artwork will look with different sizes and colors of frames and mats.
Use with iCorrect OneClick Color iPhone App
iCorrect OneClick Color is another iPhone App by Freshair Software. With a single click you can make the color right. Use it with Crop-N-Frame to get professional photos that are the right color.

Crop a Photo to Create a Great Shot!

Kingston's Beach Girls-Cropped and Color Corrected with CorrectPhoto (click on photo for larger image)
Cropping photos can turn a snap shot into a GreatShot
As I have written a few times in this blog, “Every snapshot needs two things to make it better: Cropping and Color Correction. Here is a great example using a photo taken by a customer of ours, Roger Kingston. Rodger lives in the Boston area and really takes outstanding photos. You can see examples of his work at http://www.rpkphoto.smugmug.com. He sent this photo as an example of color correction using PictoColor’s iCorrect Portrait Photoshop Plug-in and I mentioned it in a recent post on PictoColor’s icorrectcolor blog (http://www.icorrectcolor.com/2012/03/13/rodger-kingston-uses-icorrect-portrait-photoshop-plug-in/). After looking at the photo of the girls on Waikiki beach I couldn’t resist cropping the photo leaving on the airborn girls.(Rodger certainly timed the shot just right to catch them in the air.)
I used CorrectPhoto to crop and correct the color with OneClick. I first color corrected the photo by click on the white bucket in the lower right and then adjusted the cropping frame around the girls and I was finished. This is the before and after view option in CorrectPhoto.
It really only takes a couple of minutes to create a great shot. I generally use CorrectPhoto because it is so easy and fast.

Signs of Spring-Photo Editing Brings Spring to Winter Photo
by admin on Feb.29, 2012, under crop photos, photo color
Last night a bit if winter hit Minnesota with a mix of rain, sleet, snow. As I let Dickens (he is a Westie) out the front door I couldn’t resist taking a photo of the maple tree in the yard. I used my little Canon G5 with an external flash to capture the photo. As you can see the original was still a bit dark and wintery, but with a little cropping and color correction the colors of spring where quite evident. With CorrectPhoto I cropped the photo to get rid of the sidewalk and the branch on the left. Then I clicked on the snow and OneClick did a great job of brightening the image and bringing out the color in the branches. Then, to give it a bit more punch, I click on the Color Enhancement mode and boosted the brightness, contrast, and saturation and was good to go. The process took less than a minute.
You can try CorrectPhoto on your own photos by going to www.correctphoto.com.
