Give your honest opinion on my photo?
Please give your opinion and any critique. This was with an iPhone camera only, no editing or anything. I learned the rule or thirds after this…
Added (1). I now have a Nikon D3100, but this was before.
Pleasant snapshot of a pretty flower. It is sharp and in focus. The rule of thirds would have improved the composition, although there are times when centering works. It is almost impossible to offer any real "critique" on beginner work, particularly when it comes from a phone and you have little or no control over the result.
Using a phone as a camera restricts what you can do, so you will have to depend on lighting and composition to make your photos good. So begin learning some guidelines on composition and practice seeing good light. Here is a link to get you started:

I use my celcam a lot for snapshots, makes it easy to share on FB with friends and family. But if you want to really learn the basics of photography, you will need a user adjustable camera with manual and semi-automatic modes. Have fun and happy shooting!
Continue using your iPhone camera to study composition and the art side of photography because it is a lot more mobile. Being easier to use, you don't have to worry about settings. Just because it's an inferior camera doesn't mean it's useless.
Then use your Nikon to set up mind blowing concepts.
The flower: The best thing going for it is eye path. The lines of the floor boards direct the eyes from top left to bottom right. First we see a flower, then a petal. This invokes the thought "Why is the petal alone?" You should crop an inch off the left and bottom for a better frame (rule of thirds) so the flower is not centered.
- When you give APPLE a defective IPHON do they give you a reconditioned one back? My IPHONE had a defect, still under warranty, so I took it to an Apple MAC store and after a few days they gave it back, supposedly repaired. Now the replaced IPHONE has a problem, different than the previous problem I'm now having a problem with the taking a photo. Do they just replace your phone with a reconditioned one they say no but?
- Be honest is this kinda weird? I have this app on my iPhone & it's like a 2nd "contact book" & I like to keep contacts of people I rarely speak to & various phone numbers from old doctors dentists etc from my previous town just in case I ever had to get a hold of them or needed someone's number. Is this strange? My husband seems to think it's very odd.
- I'm a mind control expert. You will say the word iPhone 1000 times. OK, be honest, did you do that? I'm a mind control expert… You will say the word "iPhone" 1000 times… OK, be honest, did you do that?
- How would it be an iphone commercial, if it was honest? Like if in the iphone commercial they would say all the things that iphones do wrong, such as battery lifetime, etc.
