I put borders round photos with uMark copyright software which only costs about a tenner.
I am on my third generation of iPhones and just discovered I can use it to take panoramic photos but you can't beat a true wide angle lens, not fish eye.
I took a lot of photos last week for the Barnoldwick respite centre and printed a few on magnetic paper so they can have fridge magnets with their photos on.
It's my way of putting something back into the community.
My manipulated pics are obvious(when they bring out a camera that will do colour selection techniques, I will be having one)...and I do it because I like the artisitc effects I can create.....but like you Russell, I do prefer pics to be as natural as possible.
