HDR FX
The photo retouching on smartphones is at the order of the day. There are many alternatives to be able to make compositions that are artistic, fun, or abstract, all thanks to the filters and the frames A good option is the one that presents HDR FX, a complete application with a multitude of effects and tools to modify images until they are almost unrecognizable.
This is a fairly intuitive tool, since its visual design practically guides the user from the beginning to the end of the edition. However, the sheer number of tools and filters may initially overwhelm the novice user. Something that, with a little practice, everyone can master Otherwise, it must be said that it has a aspect very attractive visual and a large number of possibilities that we will comment on.
As soon as the application starts, three buttons are presented. The first refers to the camera of the terminal. With it it is possible to take a photo to edit it later However, if you prefer touch up an image already stored in the gallery or camera roll of the terminal, just press the central button.The option of being able to choose an image from the Facebook account to be able to modify it, is curious. even if it is not stored on the mobile. The third button takes the user to a screen where they can find information about the development of the application itself or a complete guide with all its options, although it is in English
When choosing any option, a screen with the chosen image is presented. In this step you can already use the editing tool crop, which allows you to change the framing of the image as the user wants. Pressing the blue tick in the lower right corner moves to the next editing state. At this moment, all filters that you have HDR FX Are divided on three levels: Scenery (landscape), Ground (ground) and Sky (sky).Just by sliding your finger over each selection, it is possible to see a preview of how the photo would look with these filters. We must highlight the recommendation function that this application has. And it is that HDR FX marks with a star those effects that would look good in the image
But the fun starts when the button is pressed Edit Photo At that moment new tools appear in the bottom bar The first, represented by the HDR button, allows you to change aspects such as the opacity, shading or lighting The second and third buttons allow you to split the image to edit only portions of it, for usually sky and ground. The next option gives you the possibility to modify the color curves with the levels you want, something that greatly alters the image, being able to create a compositionsurrealFor its part, the penultimate tool refers to the textures, being able to blur the photograph, or apply a drawing effect, among many other options. Finally, there is the possibility to apply a frame to frame the image and store it again, already modified, in the gallery
We are missing the integration with social networks of the moment, a good option to share all retouched photos directly from the application . However, it is expected that this function will be incorporated in a next update scheduled for the month of AprilThe HDR FX application is developed for iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch But the best thing is that you can download absolutely free for a limited time Specifically until April 30It is available through iTunes
