Title: “Ride where dreams can take you”

When you daydream, what crosses your mind? Is it in color? Do the scenes flow by like a movie script? Do you take action to make that positive dream a reality? Train rides are short bursts of energy surrounding people with sparks of life energy. On this day I froze a piece of time in pixels and used my energy to create a virtual dream reality.

Android Editors Introduces new Member Hannah Teoh It’s with great pleasure to announce that Hannah has joined the Android Editors team! Hannah is a documentary photographer and joined Instagram the day it was available for Android devices. She began producing a series of photos called #ReadingInTransit , an ongoing mobile photography series featuring people on public transport who enjoyed reading printed materials rather than staring at their mobile devices.  Over time, overlays came into the picture, and she began experimenting with creative edits using the free overlay packs produced by other Instagram users. She likes to think of her feed as consistently inconsistent - showing everything from the simple beauty of minimal monochrome edits, to experimental technicolored street and travel photography.  Read the FULL ARTICLE to get to know Hannah better and why she joined the team.

Member Submission by Josh St.Germain Photoset: “The Workshop” One of the greatest things I’ve found, in regards to choosing my phone as my camera, is that I am perpetually in a position to take a photo. I used to stumble across moments and think, “If only I had my camera”. Well, now I’m armed and ready at a moment’s notice, to shoot anywhere, anytime. This has caused me to walk through my day, viewing the world as if it was through a camera lens. Carefully scanning my surroundings with an itchy trigger finger and a lit touchscreen, I no longer let the world pass by unnoticed. Even my workplace has become a hunting ground.

  2. Opened the image in PS Touch. Did a curves to fade the tones and added Lumiform “Winter Winds” as a new layer, Blend mode: Screen, Opacity 25.

Android Editors Member Submission by Tom Nußbaum This is a Lumiforms project and more of a testing edit to see how those overlays would work in rather darker and colorful base pictures, like this one. I took this picture while I was carrying my bike, it’s not happening often but sometimes a flat tire stops you from having fun. when we started to test out our Lumiforms I had a quick look in my camera album and thought it was a great image to play, and here’s a little walk through. Editing process First I cropped the picture in Snapseed and made some adjustments to details and did a little sharpen. Next step was to add a drama effect and saved it the first time. With PS Touch I mixed the color and the black version using “overlay” blend mode, to get this mood and merged the visible layers together. In PS Touch I added a new layer, loaded my lumiforms and used screen mode to blend here. saved it into my album The last step was to add some typography with Phonto, done

“Moment Stolen” by Android Editors Member, Pernille Scheele I’m very much on vacation in Orlando Florida. I don’t get to travel often  and pretty much just hanging on to my 7 year old that is running wild in this paradise for kids. And for my kind of images and pictures I like to take, this is not the best place. The highest building for miles around is the hotel where I’m staying. My view is down on the roofs of the spread out buildings around. I’m completely  out of “my scene” when it comes to photography, and still puzzled on how I can capture this place in “my style.” However, some sneaky “street photography” by the pool I can manage! - Pernille   Read the FULL ARTICLE and review Pernille’s editing process and photo story.

Android Editors Members Submission by Nakeva Corothers Riding public transportation on a daily basis I am constantly presented with looking beyond the mundane. People, objects, geometric shapes, shadows: they are all there. I looked at a simple object along my path this day and decided to challenge myself with taking a shot of an object and make it look interesting. Well, I went all creative on the edit and found interesting points of light, shadow and use of texture overlays that play to the basics. By view of the resultant image, I got a little “spaced out.” Read the FULL ARTICLE where Nakeva takes you through the editing process of this photo.

Android Editors Members Submission by Josh St.Germain Everyday life is full of monotony and shopping is a long practiced routine of most. A few days ago my wife and I went straight to the store to run our errands after dropping the kids off at school. As I turned the corner and saw this empty scene in front of me, I immediately reached for my phone. To see the perpetually busy store look completely empty was something I needed to capture. I realized I don’t have to step out of my life to seek a photograph. I simply have to pay attention to the details of it.

Android Editors Members Submission by Jessica Powers Title: “Light in Confinement” Sometimes the challenge is not figuring out how to edit an image or even what apps to use but how to even capture an image! Funks can manifest for countless reasons be it your mood, seemingly stagnant scenery, a general lack of inspiration or you’re literally stuck in the same dull place for weeks on end.  What on earth are you supposed to capture when you’re confined to white concrete walls with the occasional barred window and a few meters of walking space for a month?! This would serve as a perfect metaphor for those bored to tears wedged between cubicle walls 8 hours a day or traveling the same commute day in and day out but, for me, it’s a bit more real than a metaphor.
