Can barely make out the car - you need some more light, and a better cell phone!

Eh, I guess 32 is old.



Here's the beef I have with these "photos".

cell phones are cell phones, not cameras. It's simply a device with a lens.

I don't know what look you were going for, but all you have is a dark photo with Mobil's fuel prices in it.

There are **** stains coming from the front and rear doors of your car.

1. Get a real camera
2. Learn how to use a camera
3. Figure out what setting / background works best
4. Night photos require additional lighting. LED flash on your phone does not qualify.

Otherwise, it's a good photo...

Sorry. A monthly paycheck for a camera is not my forte. I'd rather pay someone to do. Phone is always readily available so I took it out and snapped a couple.

To each their own. There are always people that have an issue in every thread. So no sweat off my back

A $100 point and shoot digital would have taken a pic 23,432 times better than those posted. You don't need to spend a fortune and have master photographer skills to get "good" pictures..

When I want to show something to people with a picture, the intent is to not have to EXPLAIN what it is that you're trying to show them after they look at it and scratch their heads.

I keep a Canon SD780IS with me all the time. It's TINY. Smaller than my cell phone. Metal housing; it's durable as hell. I've dropped it on pavement numerous times. Takes really good pics and surprisingly good video. You could score one on ebay for about $100 bucks, and you'll never bother taking pics with your cell phone again.
