A weekly question to prompt discussion about the arts.

Photos Do Not Bend is holding an exhibition of photos all shot with an iPhone. Which got us thinking: How exactly are smartphones impacting photography? On the one hand, they allow more people to easily participate. But are all the photo applications out there taking away some of the artistry of capturing an image? Is the boundary between pro and amateur shrinking? Drop us a comment and let us know what you think.
