Project Indigo is Adobe’s free iPhone camera app for pro-quality photos. Enjoy SLR-like natural looks, full manual controls, multi-frame HDR, raw/JPEG, super-resolution zoom, and seamless Lightroom integration. Capture, edit, and share—no sign-in needed.
O ne of the enduring benefits of the smartphone revolution is that it has put a camera in everyone's pocket - one that can reliably take good photos at the press of a button, combined with the convenience of using the same device for editing and sharing of these photos. In fact, despite the small size of these cameras, their photos often rival those from big cameras (SLRs and MILCs), with high dynamic range in bright scenes (like the snapshot above) and low noise in dark scenes (like the grandfather clock below). In fact, mobile cameras seem to keep getting better. How is this possible? Some of the remarkable improvement in mobile cameras over the past 15 years comes from better hardware -…from research.adobe.com

Hey HN! Pilots everywhere are required to keep a logbook of all their flying hours, aircraft, airports, and so on. Since I track everything digitally (some people still just use paper logbooks!), I put together some data visualizations and a few 3D globes to show my flying history. This globe is probably my favourite so far: https://jameshard.ing/pilot/globes/all If you’ve got ideas for other graphs or ways to show this kind of data, I’d love to hear them!

I was the main contributor to workout.lol, an open-source fitness app to easily build a workout routine. The project had traction (1.4k GitHub stars, 95 forks, ~20K visits/month), but was eventually sold due to video licensing hurdles. The new owner stopped maintaining it, and the repo went abandoned. Over the next 9 months, I sent 15 emails to try to save it : no replies. Feature requests & issues were ignored. The community was left with a "broken" tool let's say.
