Look what I took on my mobile
"Acclaimed photographer and artist Henry Reichhold, has taken pictures in nine cities on five continents with a Nokia N95 phone. Thee images are up to 7m (23ft) wide panoramas. Metro reports via Spluch.
"Reichhold took the pictures by using sequential firing to get six shots in a row, building up 30 images of the sky, each with one-third overlap.
The 52-year-old , from South Kensington in West London, started using his mobile because it was small and convenient to carry around.
"When people see the potential in a mobile phone, they will be stunned by the colour and the quality and, hopefully, look at the phones in a different light," he added.
The pictures are featured in his Connected World exhibition – which runs in 'real' and 'virtual' (Second Life) format. Click here for
