Wow. I'm torn. The image is a very decent picture -- its probably the most artistic phone cam shot ive seen yet. but the question remains - is it FOLIO level quality? I'll give this one a good start here and let everyone else decide.

It is a picture of the virgin mary kissing jesus as he goes off to work. You could sell this for a fortune on EBay.

actually, we need this kind of thing in the safe. cameraphone photography is a legitimate genre in my book and you have done something good with it here, nice composition, interesting mood, etc.

Hmmm .. I was going to delete this when I first looked at it, the shadow shot while nice, is not nice enough, so I@m still going to delete.

I do not have anything against cameraphones. Using a couple of those myself. I'd prefer this post to be a bit bigger, to really see what it's all about. The 2nd shadow ruins this for me.

Why would we not want one really poetic and romantic mobile shoot for our folio? We're all about diversity, aren't we?

This is great work. Don't care if it is was done with a mobile phone.

Thanx a bunch to all the supporters of GREASE! Del 8 and Save 9 wooo... this one's close so c'mon someone give it up (one more save vote!) and my little piece of Italy becomes a little piece of Delete me...
Act now & you will get a free set of PPWP's underpants and a smidgen of steve_g's sense of humour! But hurry this offer won't last long...

I like the image and it's true that extra points should be awarded for the fact it's a cameraphone.

There is a nice mood captured in those shadows. But still it isn't the most amazing thing I've ever seen regardless of all the aforementioned items.

I'm glad my vote isn't the final one. Looks like someone else gets to decide the fate. (I think Kipling didn't add a tag btw)

If it's a megapixel camera why is this image so tiny? Even a megapixel is enough to produce a decent sized image for the web - this is just too small to judge for me and I just can't get passed that. As this is so close to the edge, therefore, I won't be the one to push it over. It looks OK from what I can see.

To my knowledge toMT phone camera shots are usually small by default depending on the size that you choose... I chose 480 x 640 to save space on my SD card (at that time) and this is the reason for the size. I'm glad you think it looks "OK..." lol as a harsher comment would have broken me...

The image here is half that. 640 is viewable - there's a lot of squinting goes on at 320.

Is this save 9 or 10? Kipling was a save 9 no? toMT I tell it like it is and this is 480 x 640 regardless of your expertise...

This is what I see when I try to view all sizes of this image - is there some
feature of Flickr that is stopping me from seeing the 480 x 640 image you
posted?

toMT you are most right & I do apologise... The image here is 240x320 but my phone cam doesn't go below 480x640 so it's got me!

Anyway, crew what should I do with this now? A little confused considering it was given save 9 by kipling, without a tag and then save 10 (save 9) by POSEYAL??

Does it deserve to stay or go...?
