We all have our idols. Someone to learn from, someone we aspire to. For a number of years I have followed a great photographer and creative genius and he goes by the name of Chase Jarvis from the USA. Lately he has been posting heaps of photos taken with his iphone on his blog in order to make a point. The point was, as stated in the title of this post, that "The best camera is the one thats with you". It doesn't matter how many mega pixels it is or what ISO is goes up to, how good its dynamic range is BLAH BLAH BLAHDY BLAH, as long as you have a camera with you all the time. Almost everyone does........ even if its a cellphone its still a camera. The most important thing is that you share your images, your vision with others. There's no point on them staying locked up on your memory card or hard drive.
I don't have an iphone, well not yet anyway, but I have really taken this advice on and plan to do something similar, with whatever camera I have on me at the time, whether it be my 4 year old mobile, or my rather flimsy looking sony touch-screen compact job or my professional gear. The point is I will shoot. Anything, anywhere.
But I don't want to be alone. Maybe you could take some of the inspiration I got from a crazy dude all the way over in Seattle, USA. Join in with me. It'll be fun.

Anyway time to practice what I preach.
