It has been a busy few weeks and I have found that I have let a number of things, this blog included, slide. Well I am trying to play catch up and this is the first (not sure of how many).

Yesterday my friend asked me an interesting question as we were standing outside a camera shop in a city centre street, an almost unheard of thing these days, “Why do you need any of this equipment anymore?” This got me thinking and these three photos illustrate his view up to a point. They were all captured using a my iPhone and were all taken with a specific aim in mind: Capture the moment that life presents to you.

Are they any good? I have no real idea. I like them, the only criteria I’m interested in. Will other people I have no idea and to be honest that doesn’t really concern me. Would they have been more considered if I had captured them with my Sony? Yes of course they would have been because that is a direct effect of using a camera with far more control compared to a smartphone.

Does this answer the question posed? It probably is as compete an answer as I gave yesterday. At least I’m consistent (?). Any way watch this space as I try and catch up with the work I’ve produced over the past few weeks but please don’t expect and ‘On photography” analysis of the art or craft of photography.
