The Best Camera is the One You Have With You
Posted by David | Filed under Artwork, Photography
My interest in photography has recently been rekindled thanks to Chase Jarvis and the nifty iPhone Best Camera app. The idea behind the app and the user upload project at thebestcamera.com is to open up impressive, quality photography to the masses. Makes sense given that camera carrying mobile phones are almost ubiquitous in modern society.
See the video for more details and below some of my bestc.am shots – all taken, edited and uploaded to various social networks on the go in a matter of seconds.
