Globetrotter is a beautifully-designed iOS app that plots your photo memories on a world map, complete with route visualization for day trips, 3D landmark collection, and year-in-review summaries. As someone who loves both photography and maps, this looks like a compelling way to revisit travel memories.

via Axel Rauschmayer (@rauschma@fosstodon.org): Still frequently impressed by how much mileage MozJPEG compression gets out JPEG images. I’m using it via https://Squoosh.app (a progressive web app).

Squoosh is a browser-based image compression tool that works entirely locally — your images never leave your device. It supports multiple formats and lets you visually compare before and after results. Worth considering as part of a site build workflow for optimizing image assets.

via Simon Gray: The Danish artist Thomas Dambo put up these large, wooden trolls all around Denmark. They are located in various hidden or hard-to-get-to places, making them perfect as destinations for hikes (or bike rides).

Several alternatives to iPhone’s built-in Camera app.

Migrate photos from one processing tool to another.

If you’re someone who enjoys taking photos but doesn’t enjoy checking a pile of apps to see when the conditions are right, I’d love for you to check out my new app Photo Scout and give your feedback.

Simon Willison: TIL that macOS ships with a default CLI command called “sips,” for “scriptable image processing system” - and it can convert webp images to PNG, but it can also generate entirely new images from scratch using an almost entirely undocumented canvas-based JavaScript API!
