Belvedere Castle, Central Park, NYC. Scene: Clarity; FX: Magic Hour.

Summer time is the perfect time to head outside on a photo adventure and snap some great shots for this week’s photo contest. For this week’s contest is focused on one of our most popular FXs, Magic Hour.

The theme is completely open, so get creative! Head out onto the beach and take some summer sunset shots, lay in the grass and expriment with cloud shots, or grab your best friend and do some portraits by the pool.

Or, if you are like me, busy working indoors all summer, furiously tapping away on your laptop while the sun squeezes through the blinds, causing you to squint your eyes and feel the deep pangs of regret for not paying an extra $150 for the anti-glare screen… there is always food photography or creative macros of your gadgets. :P

    What are the results of the Magic Hour contest?

    Is there a thought to have an added feature for creating mozaic/collages within camera+ photos in lightbox? With the effects such as those in today’s blog post for Tap Tap Tap would be fantastic especially for blogging etc.
