Controversial? Where it seems that the iphone sparked a whole new wave of street photography by people using the camera facility on their iphone, coupled with all kinds of apps to improve the image by all sorts of means, it would seem that the phenomenon (i like that word) that is called “iphoneography” has kind of forgotten that almost every other mobile phone/portable/cell out there has a camera too.

The difference is that early on someone out there coined the phrase “iphoneography” and it stuck. SO much so that there are all sorts of people out there worldwide blogging daily with new images taken on their phones. Just check out these people on Twitter to see what i mean: justwhatisee, falleri & Island_dreamer.

But what about the other mobile phones. They have cameras. Why didn’t anyone come up with a name for it so that it is all encompassing as opposed to just for iphone’s?

How about mobilography? Hmm. Nokiography? Sonyography?

Well irrelevant of whether they work or not I’ve coined Blackberrography because that is the phone that i have right now and that is what the photos in my new online gallery were taken on. It might not have quite the same ring to it as the “iphoneography” but until i get one of the iphone’s then it will have to do.

Make of it what you will, but go and have a look at the gallery and leave a comment. They’d be good to hear.

And for now here’s one of those images:
