Cell phone photos
2

I get comments on some of my cell phone photos and some people will say how do you get such clear shots?

Well that answers itself, if, most of you like me have been taking photographs (not to be confused with selfies, snapshots or other things from a pinhole camera).  I've been taking photos for over 40 years, slr film to digital about 5 years ago.

Holding the phone still, obviously helps, but having more creative control over the camera settings helps a lot.  My software of choice is Camera FV-5.  My cell phone is a Chinese one, used here in the states. Huawei Ascend Mate2.  It only has Jelly Bean 4.3, but it's very stable.

I can only shoot in JPG, not raw as I would like, but most of these came out pretty well, considering they are from a tiny tiny sensor compared to the APS-C sensor in my dSLR.

All of these were taken at the garden center at a local Walmart, mostly shaded.
