This App Offers Tips On Local Photography Sites, Transit & Weather

Explorest is an innovative iPhone photography app that is designed to make it possible for users to go about getting tips, tricks and inside scoops on the best photography sites in their area so that they can go about getting the best snaps for their Instagram feed.

This photography app, which is currently available to shutterbugs in Singapore and California, works by taking a wide array of information from users, including the GPS coordinates of their photo spots, map compatibility as well as details on hard-to-find locations from which to take great photos. What's more, the app even offers such details as transit instructions and weather, so that you can plan your next photography mission.

By crowdsourcing data from other app users, the Explorest photography app helps camera enthusiasts expand their horizons and help others to do the same, making this a great example of solidarity via social media.
