It never fails. That perfect shot appears before you and you don't have your digital camera on hand. Fear not however because with just your iPhone and a few reasonably priced or free applications from the App Store installed, you have all that you need to make capture, edit, and share great images right from the palm of your hand!
Over the last few months, the author of this exhibit has taken this concept to heart and worked hard to master snapping, cleaning up, and sharing all kinds of photos using only the iPhone. After achieving great results and coupled with desire to share these findings with others, this exhibit is the fruits of those labors.
It aims to help you to learn about some of the best tools (many of which are FREE) that can help you get much, much more out of your iPhone beyond its standard Camera and Photos applications. Please explore further and see what you can learn to take your iPhone photography to the next level!
It's hot, it's sunny, it's steamy... or as I say it's simply perfect day!

“Things that I thought were unacceptable a few years ago are now commonplace in my house,” she said, “like all four of us starting the day on four computers in four separate rooms.”
Technology has shaken up plenty of life’s routines, but for many people it has completely altered the once predictable rituals at the start of the day.
This is morning in America in the Internet age. After six to eight hours of network deprivation — also known as sleep — people are increasingly waking up and lunging for cellphones and laptops, sometimes even before swinging their legs to the floor and tending to more biologically urgent activities.
“It used to be you woke up, went to the bathroom, maybe brushed your teeth and picked up the newspaper,” said Naomi S. Baron, a professor of linguistics at American University, who has written about technology’s push into everyday life. “But what we do first now has changed dramatically. I’ll be the first to admit: the first thing I do is check my e-mail.”
The Gudes’ sons sleep with their phones next to their beds, so they start the day with text messages in place of alarm clocks. Mr. Gude, an instructor at Michigan State University, sends texts to his two sons to wake up.
“We use texting as an in-house intercom,” he said. “I could just walk upstairs, but they always answer their texts.” The Gudes recently began shutting their devices down on weekends to account for the decrease in family time.
CALEB KIMBROUGH: “I’m a firm believer that a great photographer’s skill should be autonomous, that the quality of their work shouldn’t depend on how much their camera cost or how many external lights they are using. My opinion is well illustrated by the iPhone photography portfolios of Sion Fullana and Greg Schmigel (as well as countless others), the photographs they create have great depth and capture the emotion of their subjects effortlessly, and yet they were taken with a camera phone… not a two thousand dollar camera setup. I feel that by experimenting with the iPhone we are forced to use a minimalist camera setup and thus have to focus on things like composition, timing, and other photography basics which helps develop true skill.via cultofmac.comThe gallery is at http://iphonephoto.us/. The excerpt above eloquently captures my thoughts and saves me from blogging about it. Sometimes I want my good camera, but increasingly I like the challenge of the iPhone. You have to actually get interesting content and be creative because you don't have fancy technology to save you. I really believe it's a genre unto itself and am excited about the possibilities. Also, I am endlessly amused using the myriad photo-editing apps on my iPhone.
The CIA World Factbook is arguably the best value for a research almanac, bar none. The Factbook provides detailed information on the geographies, economies, populations, and militaries of more than 250 nations and territories spanning the globe. And all of the information is in the public domain, making it an attractive resource for developers to repackage and sell for the iPhone and iPod touch.

A Flickr user recently woke up to his worst nightmare. His account, to which he had uploaded more than 3,000 photos over five years, was hacked and terminated by someone using a Hotmail account. But that's not all.
