Sony Ericsson's t-six-ten online camera phone magazine
I learned of this magazine through Alan Reiter's Camera Phone Report who read about it himself on Tom Hume's weblog.
Sony Ericsson's t-six-ten is a monthly magazine showcasing the best in mobile photography captured by members of the public around the world.
Anyone can become a t-six-ten 'image scout'. All you need is a mobile phone (any brand) with an integrated or attachable camera and a little imagination.
Each month they set a photographic challenge and ask you to seek out the perfect shot. And because it's mobile photography inspiration can come anywhere: On the bus, in a queue, first thing, last thing, taking a side street or in the canned foods aisle.
But here's the thing: you can only submit one shot per challenge, so you'll need to make sure it's something special.
If you're stuck for inspiration check out our Featured Artists: a collection of celebrities from around the world commissioned to go and get creative with a new Sony Ericsson T610/T616.
Their worldwide panel of judges convene online once a month to select the winner and nine runners up. The judging criteria are simple: composition, creativity and relevance to the set challenge. But of course, it might just be a shot that makes us go 'WOW'.
