This is a year of years in so many ways. It's changed the way we live. Changed the way we see the world. And it's changed photography in the process.

With a few standard settings, iPhone photography is now the gold standard for point-and-shoot picture taking. But it's also fun to put your own spin on your creative work, and the iPhone Camera app makes that possible too.

This is a little different riff than how Live Photos offers motion eye-candy in the form of loops, bounces and animated GIF's. This is about the same pre-exposure images the can get the smile, the jumping cat, or the bolt of lightning that you weren't quite fast enough to catch.

What's cool about Apple Photos is that it lets you see your entire photo collection all in one place. You can drop all your old pictures right in the library along with the iPhone shots you took just yesterday. Your whole life right there in your pocket.
