cameraphone - june 2009
DESCRIPTION
In June 2009, I put down my SLR and picked up my camera phone. Blurred, OOF, low resolution and generally bad quality images feature prominantly in this book of my June impressions through the tiny weeny lens of my camera phone. (I do not like my phone as it is no better at making and taking calls then it is at taking pictures.TRANSCRIPT
