You do not need high-quality equipment and expensive editing software to take good photos. Thanks to Android and iPhone smartphones, the only tool we need to take, edit, and distribute vibrant photos can fit inside our handbags, backpacks, and back pockets. But how can we maximize the photo and editing applications built into our smartphones? How can we combine fundamental photography skills with new technology to produce beautiful pictures of family, friends, surrounding landscapes, animals, items, and even ourselves?
