To start the ball rolling....

This forum is about photography so let's share some pictures!

Here's a couple I took last week at the Proms, long wait for the day tickets. No camera, so I used my mobile.

Hi Nina

Thanks for sharing. The technical quality of the images is stunning, given that taking pictures is your phone's secondary function. The aesthetic quality is without question, of course.

The first is obviously a candid, but the three girls in the second shot must have been aware of you if you were using a camera phone, since you would have been quite close. Did it make it easier that you were shooting with something which does not look like a camera?

Undoubtedly I would not have taken the second one with my large and conspicuous 5D. What helped here was that the girls were wearing sunglasses so I couldn't see if they were aware of what I was doing or not.

They seem quite happily absorbed in their own conversation really so might not have noticed a quick shot. Nice one.
