A few weeks ago, I launched a filter called Hikari (it means Light in Japanese); my idea is to offer an option with enough lighting for those of us with iPhones or birth circles. I also took the opportunity to add different content topics aligned to my social media pillars and background for those of us who don't always have an ideal aesthetic to share content ideas.

Filter ideas:
