Playing with Snapseed's New "HDR Scape" Tool
Snapseed's new HDR filter works pretty well. Here are my results.
Snapseed, a popular image manipulation tool for Android and iOS, has added a feature to turn any image into an HDR image. I did some tests, and here are my results.

For as simple as it is to use, it yields pretty good results. Obviously the quality isn’t nearly as good as you see from professional photographers who use tools like Photoshop and spend tons of time tweaking the effects. Yet for the amateur looking for a quick way to spice up their image, it’ll get you 90% of the way there. I’m usually opposed to these sorts of filter effects, but this is one that I can actually get behind.
