The camera phone
Well, it finally happened. I posted iPhone photos to my Flickr stream.
I honestly never thought I would. “Flickr’s for my real photographs,” I always said. “For photos that were shot RAW, put through Lightroom and Photoshop — you know, real photos.” But I forgot where I started with photography — with a cheap Canon Powershot point-and-shoot and an open mind. If it was worth sharing, I shared it. The source didn’t matter. And that’s still true.
The great thing is the camera phone is with me all the time, everywhere. Inspiration strikes sometimes when not armed to the teeth with a DSLR. For those moments, I shall bow to the convenience and genius of the camera phone. The iPhone camera is good enough that, like my old Powershot and almost any other camera, a good subject and composition can make a photo worth sharing.
And so it’s not the effort put into the photo nor the equipment used to create it that makes it a “real” photo. It’s the inspiration and the content that makes it real.
It’s in the eyes
