Cellphone photography has become a new and emerging form of media. With cellphone photography one can share images of what is going on around them at an instant with someone far way from them just as it happens. Cellphones these days are built with cameras that can be compared and can some extent match those of actual digital cameras. The use of cellphone technology allows images to be to be taken, sent to a recipient and printed into actual pictures. Cellphone photography is a relatively new phenomena, but one that is steadily growing in popularity as camera phones become more and more sophisticated.
As this phenomena grows, so does the rate of sites that cannot be censored. This means that people can take images of themselves or of others unknowingly and use them in compromising situations. By saying this these images of the people that are not aware, at the same time people that are aware, are sent to certain websites that they have no knowledge of. Cellphone photography has led to a number of menacing activities and consequences of the actions an example of this is when girls are coerced into believing that the photographs that are being taken are not going to put up anywhere public only to find their faces pasted all over pornographic websites that can be accessed from your cellphone.
A case similar to the concerns aired above happened to a woman in Central Florida in the United States of America when she sent a photograph of her daughter's braces to family members from her cellphone. When the family members opened the image it was an image of Pinocchio doing something you would not find in the storybook.
All in all, cellphone photography is a innovative means of keeping track of what your loved ones and those you know look like, at the same time can pose as a threat in certain areas of the unknown.
