The iPhone camera has been both maligned and praised for it's effect on digital photography. But the popularity of the iPhone has made it ubiquitus, and it is having a definite effect on the way people take pictures today. This is a gallery of photos that I have taken that showcase some of the features and limitations of the iPhone as a photographic tool. All of these pictures were taken with an iPhone camera and edited exclusively with apps available on the iPhone.

Warbird



I love aircraft and I attend air shows when I can. I took this picture at the Camarillo air show. This is an unedited image. I was very impressed by the detail and color reproduction that the iPhone 4 was able to manage.

Painted Ladies



One of the first shots I took with my new iPhone 4. This was taken in San Francisco while my wife and I were on our honeymoon. I was amazed at the clarity of the image and the amount of detail that was visible, especially in the grass. this is an unedited pic taken with the default camera app.

Empty Teacups



A rainy night at Disneyland closed the Teacup ride. Taken in very low light and it shows. A lot of grain in this picture. I was unable to get any real improvement in any of the apps I tried, but I think it makes a nice picture as is. Taken with an iPhone 3G

A Candid Moment with Darth Vader



I just couldn't resist this shot. Unedited iPhone 3G

Sunset in the OC



Out in the back yard at a friends house I tried to capture the full moon as it hung over the mountains which were lit by the setting sun. I was surprised at how well the camera caught the colors of the setting sun and the details in the low light below. Taken with an iPhone 3G.

Parasol



Another Disneyland shot. This one is in front of the Haunted Mansion. You can see the Nightmare Before Christmas Decorations on the balcony. I love the contrast between the colors of my wife's umbrella against the greys of the building. Unedited, taken with the iPhone 3G.

Lighting the balloon



Snapping photos at a balloon festival, I particularly liked this shot. This is unedited from my iPhone 3G.
