Nowadays the most boring thing that can happen is to have to wait to find something, a bus, a friend, we ordered pizza. Even if the world is full of things to do we must often be free of lead and circled his thumbs waiting for some astrological event we change the day.

In fact we are not aware of being equipped with an instrument which, although not exceptional quality, can offer many ideas and possibilities, I'm talking about the camera of your mobile phone.

Almost all mobile phones today are equipped and technology is making great strides, so much so that the latest models implement up to 4 megapixels cameras with optical zoom.

Follow some of the ideas presented here and improve your quality of photographers:

1. Try new points of view: The mobile-phone cameras fit in the palm of your hand and your hands can reach places where your head could not get there, so .... Use your hand!

For example, raise your hand out the window, sporgetela out the window of the house, draw them closer to your shoes while skating, it is very likely that you will discover a world that would otherwise not be able to see with your eyes, and everything in the palm of your hand .

2. Be abstract: Try to find the unusual in the usual things .... Try to photograph the rising bubbles in your beer, a particular form in a cloud or a spot of rust, they are all waiting to be discovered.

3. Take a picture - you practice on the composition View definition in a new window : Try to create original shots, keep in mind the rule of thirds, rules of composition, analyzed the perspective lines and centers of interest, overlay planes, try net shots contrasts of light and ... well you practice with the pure photographic theory.

4. Try to create a view: Some phones allow you to create panoramic photographs, is a good idea to test this possibility, since they offer a perspective rarely seen in traditional photography, let's say you have a more "broad" in the scene where you are

5. Go back to the principles of photography: photography students are often asked to take photographs of textures, geometric patterns in order to understand their function in the traditional sense of a photograph. You can do the same with your phone.

6. Try new points of view: Have you ever wondered what they see your dog and your cat from their height? What do you see your refrigerator when you stick your head in? Try to simulate these situations with your mobile phone

7. Discover: The camera of your mobile phone is with you at any time (it's not your digital camera). Use it to take pictures and find new places to visit for the event and to remember them later. A good idea might be to rename your photos to better classify them at a later time

8. Try to make photographic portraits: The bus stops have their qualities: they are a collection point for a variety of people. The same applies to sweepstakes and trains, subways and airports. It is often difficult to take pictures to people who do not know either, and the phone can be an excellent tool because you can pretend to do something else (remember to turn off the shutter sound!). You can get photos like this very natural and highly expressive.

9. Take the self-portraits: Self-portraits have always been an intriguing art, and a strong sign of what you are and you have been. Make it often, and I will speak of you.

10. Look for objects: cities, even small countries, are ideal places to find lots of interesting things. They are everywhere, leaning against the walls, abandoned at the corners, hanging from the ceiling, waiting to be photographed.
