1. Here’s an explanation of how I photographed the galactic center with #iPhone13ProMax, following a number of requests. This works for iPhone 11 and up although 12/13ProMax will yield better results due to better camera specs.

Surfing in the rain - limited vision, flattened seas … and one of my favourite experiences. This was a recent vintage surfboard festival.

Exploring an abandoned mansion in Scotland, now being overtaken by the wild. Took 40 minutes walking through the woods to find. Must have been magnificent back in its day. The underground passages were creepy, and I got a bit lost trying to find my way out.

My first Soviet-era camera. I’ve been looking around for an affordable vintage travel 6x9, and this Moskva5 rangefinder fits the bill. I just hope it arrives before I leave for the UK in a few weeks 😬

DiveVolk has released a new underwater housing - MaxPlus - to accommodate bigger phones such as #iPhone16ProMax . And there’s a new Bluetooth trigger. Iphone16 is the only iPhone with zero shutter lag, so press the button that’s what you get.

I’ve not really bothered with Camera Control - seemed a bit of a gimmick - but in the BMD app it’s a much better experience. BMD’s commitment to this app and mobile filmmaking is impressive and should be applauded.

My highly inventive daughter has made a camera out of a lemon. Stay tuned for results.

Here’s a simple solution for attaching filters to the iPhone 16Pro/Max - Moment 67mm filter adapter attached to a Moment case. I used this adapter with 15PM and it is compatible with the latest iPhone. It fits well on the bayonet drop-in lens mount but too loose on the trim ring.

This moon halo last night looked spectacular. I called the kids out and they both gasped. Moon halos are not rare and happen when the moonlight (waxing gibbous last night) illuminate ice crystals in the upper atmosphere. Either way, it look very cool.

I’m really liking the new Styles and Filters functions in #iPhone16Pro . The ability to shoot, edit and apply adjustable looks within the native app is becoming seriously good.
