Mobile phones

Years ago photographers used to religiously use film because they had nothing else and as time goes on there was a digital camera and now photographers sometimes use their mobile phones. Some mobile phones have more megapixels than most cameras and you can download apps to edit these such as Instagram. Just because you use a mobile phone doesn't mean your pictures are instantly awful. Here are some I've taken on my mobile phone which at the time was on an iPhone 5s.

^^ These two images are from the Eiffel Tower in Paris; whilst me and my boyfriend were there they were celebrating the life of Nelson Mandela and had his name projected onto the Eiffel Tower, the things that make these photographs are not only the angle they were taken but the lighting itself that was on the Eiffel Tower brought this to life; especially the strobe lights beaming through the sky. For a mobile phone i think that this image has worked really well for detail considering how big the Eiffel Tower is. 

This image i had taken at Butterfly world in the garden centre. Butterflies usually fly away when you get to close but these butterflies were too busy eating to realise. When i first taken the image it was just to capture them eating the orange but when i zoomed in the detail is incredible, that long thing is actually the tongue and when zoomed in you can see all the detail from the eyes to the wings. The good thing about camera phones is that you can focus on certain things and not just the whole image. Camera phones are getting better day by day especially when you can capture something like this already.

Here is the image zoomed in!
