Smartphonography, that is, fast and accessible photography, came to my mind long before the advent of smartphones.

I remember many key points in my life, namely some global thoughts in my mind.

And now I remember where this desire to shoot on a mobile device came from.

It was an advertisement for some phone with the latest camera at that time (2003).

Oh, how skillfully they filmed there and immediately got a picture on the screen! And I walked with a film Zenith...

And I remember walking back from a landscape shoot and dreaming that someday I would also take pictures like that.
https://sun9-82.userapi.com/s/v1/if2/zxLgJ4Bt6oyT4lq6fG13FghV_dxgMA3ZqVPgzlUyBARbJIiYSAJKmP2fgw5R4diqyCkTLZ7sLqTty44MJgu_T6t_.jpg?size=2560x1920&quality=95&type=album

The advertisement of that mobile phone was not an imposed desire, but a conscious understanding that the era of fast and convenient photography was coming.
https://sun9-37.userapi.com/s/v1/if2/vgvvHG1EGR_FaKiklYr9OKrDAblhDYkqeBO_LsH6lbLMyzUGIn1yb8MlKz-egVW0uUdkW_mMVKXdvxVZ7Qhou2eS.jpg?size=2560x1920&quality=95&type=album

I knew that I wanted it and I was quite ready to accept it.
https://sun9-77.userapi.com/s/v1/if2/MzP2VtLuLwdYQ69bsfe30QGHp_xHhq3po_K0z7H6T9TCF50i31FCe7IjJLCbOtkJSPjU_33Z33MKHKBGLkLk3rxi.jpg?size=2560x1920&quality=95&type=album

And now it has arrived! I shoot quickly and conveniently. The picture can be shown on the screen of any device anywhere, and it can also be printed quickly - you don’t even need to go to the photo lab, just send the file by e-mail and order home delivery.
https://sun9-56.userapi.com/s/v1/if2/crfod51A8TxtTYcXrHPW5xfQsB8_pb_eLNTGy-ux8fkRshCUgi7p6mg6MnCGbTc3RMidHBEwJrD8-fUjFx0qYWhe.jpg?size=2560x1920&quality=95&type=album

Only all photographers say one thing: with the advent of mass photography, there was no increase in the number of good photos.
https://sun9-52.userapi.com/s/v1/if2/BrsdCGULvMglY8k54SZ4Nu6PwfczGnJjJhKvwtZWsoq4FRONZI9jnQ-j55mX90xk62gYvBhH3cxKgWQt8VngpPdq.jpg?size=2560x1920&quality=95&type=album

I already have more than five thousand pictures on my smartphone, but only 20% of them have a hint of artistry.
https://sun9-75.userapi.com/s/v1/if2/aVMCerLeWeBv2RiewAlvgpxvyiY6DtLLecLiZ8qSWOExR4FlJZjX6klP4ymbba754dUWwV34fKXJfLzDqPFh_Is6.jpg?size=2560x1920&quality=95&type=album

The remaining 80% are family, children, takes and technical shots.
https://sun9-43.userapi.com/s/v1/if2/PqcZMh6S7vzkshb1nfutIzMBS8fP2aRs1dHQdFQNr4RIoxeHn5u65MVPvBhKkFfxkymVlvjFLCmIbdzCL87FHuq9.jpg?size=2560x1920&quality=95&type=album

And I shoot everything creative about the same as on the camera.
https://sun9-86.userapi.com/s/v1/if2/OpDNAlB-p-uqIVuE8RvlaRouq_AWAc0DOYouGfjEIOqgLKZ_OqtusGUFDPtMy8hAvIUsuSILBaDGaNp0BaQTWiUc.jpg?size=2560x1920&quality=95&type=album

It would be strange to shoot one thing on a smartphone and another on a DSLR.
https://sun9-28.userapi.com/s/v1/if2/dOkVMz8uIhrIOV2Qp8Vgft75LetFS50yWtq2CDhw8_q8yMxUZntp3xGYlrZtOUusd4hXFSwJ8kbQy-7Fz9SzmPK9.jpg?size=2560x1920&quality=95&type=album

Maybe someone does, but I do not have such distinctions. There are only different sensations from the process.
