Use Your Phone’s Features<img src="http://d2f29brjr0xbt3.cloudfront.net/767_mobilephototips/settings2.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />We’ve  already mentioned the possibility of super-imposing grid lines over  your image, and it doesn’t stop there. Although many features may feel  like a gimmick, others can really help with your photography and help to  take better images. Try turning on the HDR mode on your iPhone — it’ll  capture two images, one standard, and another that merges a few  exposures together on the fly. Sometimes the result is dire, but often  it can pick out way more detail that you’d expect a phone to be able to.<img src="http://d2f29brjr0xbt3.cloudfront.net/767_mobilephototips/nexus22.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Some  phones are starting to offer pretty nifty software for capturing  panoramic images as well. It often works better than you’d expect!6. Reserve Judgement for LaterAlthough  your phone camera may be pretty decent, there’s a good chance that  you’ll struggle to appreciate the quality of your photographs on a  small, relatively low-resolution screen. Providing space isn’t a  restraining factor, hang on to your photos to review at a later date.  You might find that they appear far more impressive on your  desktop/laptop display!7. Free Up Some Space, and Backup!Two  tips in one here… Just in the same way that packing a couple of memory  cards is advisable, it’s also good sense to regularly check your phone’s  memory to ensure you have plenty of space for snapping ad-hoc photos.  Don’t be caught with a phone that’s so full of games, apps, and music  that you don’t have any space to capture the photo of your son’s first  few steps.<img src="http://d2f29brjr0xbt3.cloudfront.net/767_mobilephototips/space2.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Equally  important is to ensure that you regularly download the photos from your  phone, and back them up to your computer. The nature of a phone means  that it’s far easier to lose, or have stolen. It’s bad enough to lose  the phone, but it would be more devastating to realise that you’d never  copied any of your photos back to your computer.8. Avoid Direct SunlightAnother  tip that applies to mobile phone photography, just as it does  everywhere else, is to avoid direct sunlight. Don’t encourage your  subject to stand directly facing the sun, as you’ll have harsh shadows  and a poor image. Head into the brightest area of the shade to set up  your composition, and you’ll be far more pleased with the result.9. Fill Your FrameUnfortunately,  you won’t yet find a f1.2 lens on your camera phone just yet, so it can  be difficult to blur the background using a shallow depth of field.  Instead, the best way to deal with a crowded and busy background is to  fill the frame with your subject. Get close (don’t forget, you’re much  less intimidating with a phone rather than your SLR), and avoid a photo  with a tiny subject in the middle of a crowded background.10. Take It Everywhere!As  the old adage goes, the best camera is the one you have with you. The  beauty of your mobile phone is that it’s almost always in your pocket —  there’s no need to carry around an extra point-and-shoot, or remember to  charge a second device.Although it will never be a replacement  for a powerful digital SLR, the humble camera-phone has come a long,  long way over the past few years. I now take more photos using my iPhone  than I do any other camera, and it’s an incredibly capable piece of kit .Take  it with you everywhere, follow these simple tips, and enjoy the freedom  of being able to snap a beautiful image regardless of whether or not  you remember to pack your photography kit!from : tutsplus.com</blockquote>
