Shawn Rocco

Shawn Rocco is making amazing photographs with a cellphone. Making photographs as art with a cellphone is nothing new. I briefly wrote about this in my blog 2 years ago

The thing that makes Rocco’s work very different is much of the cellphone art photographs out there aspire to be art. This is the real thing. Rocco’s work is well composed and reflects art styles that are presently being shown with other types of cameras. A detailed article about him appears in today’s New York Times.
