I got an iPhone over the weekend and have been fooling around with it. The camera in it has a hair trigger, and I have taken more shots of the pavement and my fingers in the last twenty-four hours than I have in my entire career. This was an "accidental" shot, but I liked the red drinking straw in the foreground. The iPhone focused on that!

The shot has been tweaked in CS3 for color balance. I also used some vignetting and zoom blur.

I just noticed that the only info the iPhone gives you on the shot is the f-stop.

Nice arty shot. Your title makes me laugh.

Now I have to say that I have a new iPhone too, and am having such fun with it. The camera takes some surprisingly good photos -- and some pretty bad ones too. :}
