Long Exposure Sunrise with my iPhone and Lightroom Mobile

This Mobile Phone Photography is addicitve!

A couple of weeks back I headed over to West Bay, Dorset to meet up with my friend Steve Healy and to catch the sunrise.

Taking only my new iPhone 14 Pro Max and SmallRig Univeral Holder, whilst Steve shot away with his Fuji XT-5, I shot using the Lightroom Mobile App and experimented with the long exposure settings.

This is my favourite from our time there before the rain came down and stopped play; still … we were recommended a great café the round corner so alls well that ends well 😃

iPhone Photography at Cardiff Bay

Damn! I’m absolutely loving taking photographs and video with my new iPhone 14 Pro Max. The quality jump from my iPhone 11 Pro Max to this latest model is like a night and day difference.

Last week I popped over to Cardiff to catch up with my friendAnthony Crothers and ended up walking around Cardiff Bay.

Such a great place with a great atmosphere and so many cool places to eat and drink.

Inbetween the rain showers I managewd to grab a few photographs with my new iPhone 14 Pro Max along with the SmallRig Universal for Mobile Phones and my new Benro Tripod … my old Manfrotto had become unuseable from Sea Water damage PLUS it was quite heavy.

You can see the kit I mention over on my GEAR PAGE ( LINK )

Anyway, using the Lightroom Mobile App and the Long Exposure function set to 5 seconds, here’s one of my favourites from time there …

I edited this on my iPhone 14 Pro Max in the Lightroom Mobile App whilst waiting for Anthony to pop back, and have created a Preset from this that I’ll be sending out to members of my email group.

DO THIS for PERFECT COLOUR 🌈 in your PHOTOGRAPHS

Perfect, Accurate Colour is vitally important in both Photography and Video.

In this short video I show how to use the Calibrite ColorChecker Passport Duo to achieve exactly this; a simple process that involves 1 extra photograph and just a few clicks in Lightroom …

Lyme Regis by iPhone

Mornings like this take some beating …

Now that we’ve relocated , our favourite place of all ( Lyme Regis ) is literally just down the road and yesterday morning I headed down early to catch up with a friend (Steve Healy) that I’d not seen for quite some time.

With no agenda other than catching up , we walked along the sea front , sat on a bench looking out to see whilst drinking coffee and eating a delicious pork bap and took the occassional photograph … Steve with his Fuji kit and me with my iPhone.

Here’s a series of photographs taken wth my iPhone 11 Pro Max ( still waiting for the new iPhone 14 Pro Max to be in stock ) and editied in Lightroom Mobile … such a great , convenient combination

Bringing along just a small amount of kit , I also had my Insta 360 One X2 camera with me to capture some video. In a couple of days I have the new X3 arriving so I can’t wait to check out the quality difference.

The great thing about 360 cameras is that nothing gets missed … as you can see here 🤣

Once I get the new iPhone 14 Pro Max I intend to do a lot of photography around this coastlineand maybe look at adding some Lightroom Mobile editing videos on my YouTube Channel because this really is so much fun and makes photography even more accessible for everyone.

Cheers
