Very cool photos. It definitely is the photographer and not the camera! I just came across your entry about Patrice Elmi’s photography using a cell phone camera. Very cool photos.

The person behind the camera is way more important than the camera itself. Not to mention the myriad post-processing tools available in the digital age. But what about the question of whether the <a href="http://www.mobile-phones-uk.org.uk/nokia-n95.htm" rel="nofollow">N95 is the best camera phone?</a> I've reviewed the Nokia N95's capabilities (follow the link) and personally I don't think it's the best. The Nokia N93, Sony Ericsson K850i and Samsung G800 all beat it IMHO. What's interesting, however, is that as camera phones become ever more sophisticated, people have ever more difficulty in using them to their full potential - as you can see if you read the user comments on my site. Of course, a genius like Elmi shows us all what these machines are truly capable of. You’re right of course. The person behind the camera is way more important than the camera itself.

Great to hear from you, Patrice. And believe me, the "no slouch" remark was an incredible understatement. :-) Thanks for reading! Chris Hah! Great to hear from you, Patrice.

I was googling my way through tons of press releases and stumbled on yours. I like that you Said "She's no slouch"! and you liked my composition. I have a new webiste and new photos with a 2.0 meg LG gave me. I am currently looking for a gallery and new sponsor. Nice to have a fan out there. Website: VisualURbanAbstracts.com...just up two days and front page needs fixing, will be 9 grid photos switching fast kinda like "Brandy Bunch Meets Patrice's Views from a cell!" Let me know what you think about the rest of the site and the new work "Cell COnfusion" and Cell-f Portraits". You have to email me as i will never find this site again. I am computer challenged but cell phone savy! I have a magic camera now for the Cell COnfusion stuff!! NO RETOUCHING WHATSOEVER. Straight from chip in camera to printer!! hence the name because i have had arguements with people about this! thanks for the comments again, you wound up in my scrapbook regards patrice Christopher,
