The iPhone boasts of great camera quality—quality that of a DSLR. Its high-end technology makes it the best phone to take photos of all disciplines. From street to nature photography, the iPhone is the simple weapon of choice of most photographers and photo enthusiasts. The best camera to have is the one you always have; we’re never without our iPhones.

An iPhone weighs way lighter than any other camera and is smaller in size, making you more comfortable in taking close up pictures of nature—flowers, for example. It has great focus and you can adjust its lighting. With its HDR allowing you to capture an image with 3 different lighting compositions, your nature photos will look like it had been shot by a pro; of course, given that you’ve really done your best to get the shot.
Shooting in burst mode will allow you to take photos of moving subjects. These can be birds, butterflies, or just about any animal on the move. It could also be a flower swaying with the wind. One of the built-in features of a camera phone is its editing prowess. However, it’s best to edit carefully and let nature speak for itself. Some light editing would do well, but if everything has been retouched, the image will lose its “nature” sense.
Nature photography aims to capture the beauty of one’s surroundings, as honest as possible. It’s not every day you get to see these creatures in their natural habitat, and taking great pictures of them will surely refresh your memory about how wonderful you felt when you saw them with your own eyes.
