Hello Steemians!
I'm not a professional photographer or anything similar. I'm just a guy who's enjoying a good photos. So there comes a question: 'What is a good photo?'. Of course, there are a lot of things that are important for good photo like composition, lighting, colors, eye path etc. But, like any other form of art, photography is very subjective so you may like something or you don't. Simple as that.
People think that for good photos they need to have a good camera. Again, what is a good camera? I think that the best camera is the one you have with you. And the truth is, we always have a smartphone with us. I'm not saying that smartphone cameras are the best. Of course not. I just want to encourage you people to take photos with a smartphone because we all have one and the quality of today smartphone cameras is really good.
Here is a few photos I took with my Nexus 5.
Few tips for smartphone photography:
1. Don't use digital zoom.
2. Try shooting from different angles.
3. Post-process your photos.
4. Take more photos.
Remember, every photo you take is a moment you will remember. Don't be lazy to capture a moment.
