How to take amazing mobile phone photos

  • Next
  • Previous
Near Lake Bomoseen, a family grave caught my eye on a small hill in a field overlooking the red barn. It was a cloudy day, so the light was pretty flat. It was very quiet, and that's all I remember as my wife and I turned off the car. Not a sound, and everytime I look at this photo now, I remember that quietness. I took several photos with the camera phone held as high above my head as possible, and shot several frames. I wasn't sure whether the details on the graves would show up, but they did. It's hard to know exactly how much detail you have captured by just reviewing the photo on the camera phone. Much more detail is seen on a computer screen.
