Touching image taken with iPhone
There is a book out about the BEST CAMERA, that being the camera that you have with you at the time. In this case the book and web site are about the iPhone as your best camera. That is if it is the only camera you have with you. Just knowing that there is a book and web site about the BEST CAMERA has opened my eyes to being ready and willing to use my iPhone more often.
This has inspired me to take videos and images with my iPhone. Just recently, I was at my mother in-laws home. She was dying of lung cancer and they had moved her from the hospital to her home under the guidance of Hospice. Patty had been there since Thursday and my boys had arrived Saturday. My daughter and I were able to arrive on Sunday.
My wife sat at Donna’s bedside reading Bible passages to her, then I saw this. I did not want to go out to the car and bring in my big professional camera as it would seem very inappropriate, but walking up behind Patty I took this image with my iPhone. I showed it to her and it brought tears to her eyes. Later she asked me to share it on facebook. Others who have seen it, have said that even though they did not know Donna, that the photograph brought tears to there eyes as well.
I’m sure that when I have a print made of this for Patty, that she will cherish it.
