Taking full advantage of the Camera on your Mobile Device
From disposal cameras, to point & shoot to always having a camera in our pocket
Do you carry a camera around in our pocket, I do, it is an iPhone. I pull it out at a moment’s notice to take a picture. Most of us have more photo evidence of our lives than we ever did before. Although, we don't take the film to the drugstore for prints much anymore. I taught photography for 26 years and have lots of expensive camera equipment, but now most of my photos are taken with my iPhone or iPad.
