Through the Looking Glass
This entry was posted on Oct 04 2007
Always on the lookout for new ways to avoid cameraphonitis*, I stumbled upon this neat effect. Here’s how in however many steps it takes me to explain:
- Take a glass from kitchen and fill with water.
- Sit down and wonder what to photograph.
- Drink aforementioned water. All of it (this is important).
- Adjust camera phone settings to “flash: on” and “brightness” on its highest setting.
- Place empty (very important) glass over camera lens.
- Amuse yourself for approximately 30 minutes with this cool trick.
*Cameraphonitis: the appearance of a photo taken using a camera phone. This is a real term as of right now.

Very interesting trick here. This has been the one feature that could be better on my Motorola cell phone, the camera, but now and again it does catch some interesting shots (although not clearly).
I wish my Motorola Razor could take better quality pictures. Good shot Pete!
Excellent work Petee from the Photography Class I took to this very day and time I say, “Take pictures and they shall provide your own perspective to the World through the lens of inquisition!’
This is CREATIVITY, I like it!
The Monetizer: Most phones I’ve tried have poor camera quality. It seems that this is changing though.
Rolando: I really like the Razor style and almost got one. Instead, my awesome wife got me this huge, bulletproof phone that turned out to be one of the best deals I’ve seen in ages. No bluetooth, but it has everything else.
Leatherboots: You nailed the point of this blog right on the head.
Susanne: Thank you! Always a pleasure to hear comments like this from a fellow photographer.
The Razor is a decent phone. It works and I definitely like the bluetooth feature so I can communicate with my with other devices.
Makes transferring pictures to my PDA easier too.
