I am looking for an iphone app similar to one that is called ESPN FREEZE FRAME
It is two pictures that look identical but there’s a number of things, sometimes 5, 6, or even 10 that are different between the two pics & you are supposed to pick them out. ESPN FREEZE FRAME is a good one, but there’s a limited # of pics and they are all sports. do you know if there is another one?
“The Best Camera” app for the iPhone by Chase Jarvis. It’s brilliant. http://retwt.me/bonr
Photocalc is great! Another app I find myself using often is Shoot Planner
