I’m back from teaching iPhone Artistry with the Ansel Adams Gallery in Yosemite. The good news is that you don’t have to travel to Yosemite to learn the best of Snapseed!
Many of us were dispirited with Snapseed’s 3.0 update in June of last year, when numerous features we had grown to know and love were either broken or made harder to use.
That was then and this is NOW, as we explore new selection tools that rival Lightroom Mobile. Yes, it’s that good! Best of all, it’s easy to master and use.
You’ll curse less and edit your images better than ever after this class!

This Quad Lock case for the iPhone 16 Pro Max arrives today, followed by the iPhone’s delivery next Friday. There are prettier cases available, but I appreciate the way Quad Lock provides secure motorcycle (and bicycle) mounting with a quick, 45° twist, with no springs, clamps or other bulky hardware. Also, the on-bike mount offers waterproof wireless charging and vibration reduction, to play kindly with the iPhone’s image stabilization. Note the case’s cutout for the 16’s new Camera Control button. Can’t wait to work with this camera/case combo!
