I Thought My iPhone Shots Were Fine, Until I Didn't - TDS Photography Podcast

This is The Digital Story Podcast 1,033, Jan. 6, 2026. Today's theme is, "I Thought My iPhone Shots Were Fine, Until I Didn't." I'm Derrick Story.

As I mentioned last week, my iPhone has saved me countless times. Plus, it's so convenient. So much so, that when I'm working on an article, I often pull it out of my pocket for a few quick illustration snaps. But then, I had an interesting revelation that caused me to recalibrate. I'll share that story on today's TDS Photography Podcast. I hope you enjoy the show.
