On June 19 Chase Jarvis posted that he wanted to give away his iPhone asking his viewers to post their cell phone photographs to his facebook fan page. More than 3,500 photographs were submitted within a week! And yesterday he picked his favorite photograph from the submittions and made somebody a lucky person. He also created a gallery of his favorite one hundred photographs (including mine). Pretty incredible stuff and very inspiring too.

More cell phone photography was mentioned at the Lens Blog of the New York Times. This is the work of photojournalist Shawn Rocco who is probably one of the most prominent cell phone photographers around. He also posted an interesting article about editing his cell phone photographs in Photoshop. I am stunned how powerful his photography is.

In between I posted some cell phone photographs I took this night with a Nokia N95 while mountainbiking.

    wow! Fantastic photos.

    I love cell phone photography. I have an iPhone and am amazed at the photo quality. I do not have the 3GS, I’ve read their photo quality is MUCH better.

    • Thank you Tam. I believe the iPhone must be pretty amazing. Chase Jarvis work was already stunning. I am just using my wife’s Nokia N95.

  6. After seeing those cell phone photos I have only one thing to say:

    For sale: one Canon 40D and assorted lenses.
