Like any other photography,the trick is being in the right place at the right time! And thankfully,having your camphone with you most,if not all of the time,should make it easier to get a snapshot when the opportunity arises..I too would use mine,but as I posted in one of my discussions on the subject,the flash on phones (or maybe it's just mine?!) isn't great when flash would be needed,so probably best to go for daylight or well lit photo opportunities..

With a camera phone you are limited in the size and quality of the photos. What you might want to consider is a good travel camera. You can purchase one for between $250 and $350 (USA). These cameras are the size of a cell phone but are designed with a long telephoto and most have image stabilization. The lens are quality and give you wide angle and telephoto in one. Most of the sensors and processors are similar to the better point and shoot. Photos produced by these cameras could be printed in larger sizes.

Yes I also like to photography. I have a mobile phone with 5 mega pixel camera. Yes I know this is not sufficient for doing a good photography. But I always take snaps from this phone. This is Nokia X2-00 models. I like this phone because I like its camera. So I always do photography when I go to outside home.

I appreciate yout interest in Photography. I too like photography very much. First of all if we dont have a good camera that doesnt means we are not able to take good photos. we can take something unusal with mobile camera. But only with a creative sense. Run through your heads. Think that camera lens are secondary thing. But your eyes are primary master lens. So buit your creative ideas. Eventhough if your mobile flash is not good, utilize the natural light as much as possible. Try some extraordinary angles. And make the photo a mobile magic. If possible you can buy a portable mobile external lens currently manufactured by a lot of companies. They can attached to your cell phone and can transform your standard flat phone photos into wide and close-up wonders. I hope this may help you a lot.
