Taking pictures with a mobile phone. The camera technology on smartphones is more than adequate for taking photos and publishing them online. Depending on the camera quality and number of pixels, photos can be printed 8x10" and higher with excellent results. The significant difference today is that everyone with a smartphone has a camera handy.
My Personal Opinion
Your phone camera is your best camera, because it's always with you. When people say this about mobile photography, they're usually talking about snapping those unexpected moments, for e.g; a man in a banana suit on his way to work, a celebrity involved in a punch-up, or maybe just a beautiful sunset.
Certainly, mobile photographers are much more prolific than average amateur photographer. They have their photographic brains switched on all the time, looking for possibilities. They have made them particularly effective at capturing important moments in public spaces.
But, for many, the initial snap is just the start. It's the raw material for a new creative process. Most mobile phone cameras take very dull photos. But it doesn't matter, because there are hundreds of apps to help you turn them into something amazing. And that's what's really at the heart of it. Costing pennies, mobile photography apps give you the creative power of Photoshop, and more besides, without being tied to your desk. This makes mobile photography incredibly liberating for the creative photographic spirit. Suddenly, every free moment is an opportunity to both take and craft images. These apps have accelerated the creative process, as well as allowing you, quite simply, to be more creative, more of the time, for less money.
Here are some examples of mobile photography and I will tell you about the good and bad aspects of the pictures, for example the focus, the colour etc. All photographs below are taken by mobile phones. The pictures below demonstrate how you can take great photos with your phone and not just with a professional camera.

I really like this photo because it shows fluorescent colour and illuminates the sky's colour showing how blue it really is. I like how the focus is on the flowers and the photographer who took the picture has used a worms eye-view technique to ensure you involve all the surroundings and capturing the sun glancing down on everything. The downfall in this picture is that the photo has picked up some light from the sun reflecting on the camera lens and slightly ruining the photo. Some may disagree about it ruining the picture because it also makes it colourful relieving a light red and some purple on the reflection. I also agree with the people who think the reflection makes it look better.
