SKYE Weather + Photo brings the weather to life with elegant reports and beautiful photos shared by users like you. The app not only offers real-time conditions, as well as hourly and seven-day forecasts, but it also makes photos of weather around the world visible with the swipe of a finger. Upload and share your own weather photos, and scroll through other users' shots of your favorite places. With this easy-to-use app, you’ll get the clearest possible picture of the weather in the places you care about. Features: --Rich and immersive forecasts --Beautiful background images showing current conditions --Hourly and seven-day forecasts --Real-time crowd-sourced weather reporting --Real-time weather photos from around the world --Place current weather data on your photos with beautiful stencils --Share forecasts with friends via Facebook, Twitter, email or SMS --Save and organize your places for forecasts --See the weather in your friends' top places --Horizontal swipe for place details --Vertical swipe for quick switch

Besides doing this everyday, I have a day job as a user experience designer for BermanBraun here in Santa Monica. 

The cycle for producing an iOS app can vary in length quite a bit. When I first sketched on the screens for SKYE WEATHER+PHOTO in early 2012, I wasn't sure where the exploration would take me. 

The app is live now (iTunes link) and I am excited to hear what you think.

There are two main sections of the app: forecast and photos.

The forecast section includes current, hourly and 7-day weather information for places around the world. 

The photo section lets you discover photos (with weather information stenciled on) in any of the locations around the world. And, if you like, you can add weather stencils to any of your own photos. 

Your weather photos tell the story of your experience, the way it felt to be there at that moment. You can share your photos out to your social networks, save them to your camera roll, and document the weather for those places. 

Here are some of my favorite photos I've taken with the app:
