Great Travel Photography Apps

A close friend of mine spent years travelling the globe in search of that one great picture. In my opinion he captured thousands of pictures worthy of that title--photos that express mood, emotion and richness of culture. But, it took him a long time and left him with a bad back compliments of the heavy equipment he had to lug around.

Luckily we live in the future. Nowadays all you need to capture great travel photos is an adventurous spirit and the right apps!

Camera+ is an app I love. It has fantastic features that allow you to tweak the color and framing of each picture. Plus, you can give your photos a complete style make-over. My personal favorites are toy camera and 70s.

Halftone is another fun app. It allows you transform your pictures into cartoon versions with captions and stock sayings. It's great for a laugh and it's easy to use. Photoshop wizardry is not needed!

The Baltics have a wealth of Jewish history. On our Baltic Kosher cruise you can soak it all in while reveling in luxury and enjoying exciting entertainment options. The cruise starts on Wednesday, August 14th and ends on August 23rd. Stops include Stockholm, Helsinki and St. Petersburg.

In St. Petersburg you'll have a full two-days to explore the local culture and thriving Jewish community. We will be giving VIP tours of Catherine's Palace, the great Synagogue, the Hermitage, Peterhoff Palace, the main shopping district and incredible canal rides. Over these two days we'll delve into the rich history of St. Petersburg to help give you a deeper understanding of this historic Baltic city.

At every port you will have access to knowledgable tour guides who will take you around to the most important Jewish cultural and historic sites as well as general interest stops.

Natural beauty, deep cultural history, great food and fun entertainment--you'll have to leave when it's over, but you won't want to!
