Instagram may be the most popular photo app in the world, but its filters can only change your pictures so much.

If you'd like to turn your latest scenic snapshot into something a little more artistic, I suggest trying Waterlogue. 

The app's interface is simple: Tap the camera icon on the bottom left-hand corner of the screen, choose your photo, and let Waterlogue do the rest. In a few seconds you'll have a watercolor version of the original picture.

There are a few different watercolor styles to play around with, but I always stick with the default. You can also darken or brighten the finished photo manually if you want to get it just right.

Despite the simple creation process, the results are pretty amazing. I've included a handful of side-by-side comparisons so you'll know what to expect. Not every picture you take will translate well, but the ones that do will definitely stand out.

Oh, and there's a share button on the right-hand corner of Waterlogue's interface so you can easily send these artistic expressions where they belong: Instagram. 

You can download the Waterlogue app for $3.99 here. View As: One Page Slides
