I have more and more started to do most of my editing on my phone. Where before I would do most on the computer and a minimum amount on my phone, I have now reversed that. As a matter of fact, my last set that I posted
here was 100% edited on my phone.
Photo editing apps are blowing me away these days. I do not use photo editing programs such as Lightroom and Photoshop, instead I always leaned towards the free versions of programs such as RawTherapee and Gimp. I've never been able to justify spending money on editing programs, if I made money from photography then I would revisit that thinking. Along the same lines the video editor I use is free also, and does everything I need.
The word rich post this is becoming is only meant to share the apps I use in case anyone else is interested in editing more on the phone. These are all free, or between one and two dollars.
Snapseed - It is a now a Google program, and in true Google form simple and powerful. It was originally developed by a company called "Nix" that Google took over. (Avaliable for IOS and Android)
Darkroom - Alows you to edit lighting and color curves among other things. Also states to recognize and edit RAW files, though I have not tried that yet. (Avaliable for IOS only I believe)
Touch/Retouch - This is my new fave. How many times do we take a picture of an old building only to have power poles and power lines get in the way? All the damn time.

I know that is not that impressive, but it is the only two I had handy to post. lol
Edit because I lie.
Here is another example I had on my phone, pic taken with my phone so it is not that great, just messing with the app to show a friend.
I do this on my iphone 6, with its replaced screen that is half as dim as the original, and with three lines of dead pixels... I look forward to using them on a newer phone soon, though I will be switching to a Galaxy phone, so I will lose the Darkroom app, any recommendations?
