I don't know, sometimes I feel sort of ashamed admitting how much joy I get from photographing with my cell phone. I like the convenience, I like that it doesn't require me carrying my camera because after all, after that experience in Como, Italy of dropping my camera, I am even more afraid to carry it around too much. Besides, it seems that electronics and I don't seem to get along too well.
Don't even get me started about my last year with cell phones. In 2010 have gone through four phones, one iphone and three blackberries. I am over expensive cell phones. It appears I am not responsible enough to own an expensive cell phone so I caved in and got a simple phone. Unfortunately, there is a price to pay, my new cell phone only has 2 mega pixels. I didn't think about this fact, after all my second calling in life is cell phone photography. Oh well, such is life.
So in honor of the cell phone images I have taken in the past, I decided to share some of my favorite ones from my trip in Europe this summer. Besides I am suffering from wanderlust but hey, what else is new?

ReplyDeleteI think cell phone pics are great! the iPhone takes great pics and has so many photo editing apps, it is almost as good as a regular camera! Plus lugging around a DSLR is a pain in the arse. Anyway, I like your cell phone pics, thanks for sharing them! :)
ReplyDeleteThese are from your cellphone? Wow, amazing!!
ReplyDeleteI recognize Den Haag, I think you were quite close to me! Not entirely sure which street the picture is from (most streets look the same here haha) but it has to be somewhere close by. I do recognize the beach though ;)!
Too bad we couldn't meet :(.
