Samsung Galaxy Y Photography


Anyone, please suggest a site where I can learn photography. All I have is a mobile (Samsung Galaxy Y), no any other cameras. I just want to learn how to take a good picture just using a mobile camera.

Buy a book on composition. You won't ever get high quality images from a phone, but you can create aestehtically interesting compositions. Ideally, save up and buy a D-SLR if you catch the photography bug.

Actually - YouTube

Just search for "photography", "composition" etc

Lots of crap, but also lots of really good stuff in there.

With composition, dont shy away if its about composition of paintings. Its really the same thing. The same principles apply to photography.

You can also buy some really good books on that with more details, but YouTube will already give you the main pointers.

You can't make nice photos with a phone for a simple reason. Phone cameras don't have adjustable lens. Therefore it always uses autofocus which make look your phot flat. With a real camera you can choose what object you want to focus on, the rest of the image will be blurry and it gives depth and perspective. That's the secret of good photography in my opinion.

Thank you for the suggestion.

I know, photos would be much better with a camera with adjustable lens. But all I have is a mobile and I wanted to use that mobile to the best and take best photos possible. That's what I was asking for.
