How to take amazing mobile phone photos

  • Next
  • Previous
The day was drab, with drizzle, and the light was flat, but the colors were pronounced in this photo of an antique truck filled with hay and pumpkins on the side of a barn at The Vermont Country Store. It's important when using the cellphone camera to frame the photo for the final crop that you want to achieve. I moved closer at first to frame just the cab of the truck, but backed off to include the whole truck. The camera phone has autofocus, so the only thing you really have to concentrate on is framing the photo.
