I was talking with my co-worker about cameras vs phones. He thought cameras were being phased out by cell phone technology. This simple photo made him a believer. I was standing about 10' away.

I guess because I come from a very technical background, but I guess I forget that some people don't realize that there are specialized tools.  A purpose built device is going to be vastly different than something that's slapped on the back of something.   (Not putting down people who do photography with cellphones but they're very different tools.)

I also might have been a little grumpy due  to just waking up haha.  I'm glad he saw the light (or at least the photo). =)

An appreciation of quality tools requires education. People that use only mobile phones are ignorant of the relevant issues. So they need to be educated.
