​Using Flare

This wonderful photo of a rose was shot by my Twitter buddy Marianne and is her first go with Flare! She says "This app is great. Easy to understand and lots of possibilities. Love it!" You'll find Marianne and her iPhone photography on Flickr, Posterous, Tumblr and Twitter.

Give Flare a go before buying it by downloading a trial version of that lets you experience all the powerful features of the application but limits the size of photos that can be exported. You can take advantage of the introductory sale and get 50% off Flare on the Mac App Store. (The sale ends on March 18th)

Go to FlareApp.com to learn more about the application, download additional presets, browse the online users guide and more. Then head on over to the Mac App Store and pick up the all new digital desktop darkroom that is Flare for the Mac.
