1. How do you feel the popularity of cells phones embedded with high-quality cameras has changed the nature of photography?
I feel the popularity of cells phones embedded with high-quality cameras has ruined the spirit of of actual photography. "Why pay someone to do something that I can easily do myself and have fun doing at the same time?" (Reality Check: Professional Photography Is going Away). Since people have phones with good cameras, they can just take the pictures themselves, then those people won't get spirit of photography. "I can take a perfectly nice picture with my smartphone" (Are Camera Phones Ruining Photography?). This can be true but you can't edit the photos like we can do with a DSLR photo with photoshop on the computer.

2. Speculate on what you think that the future of photography will be. Holograms, wearable cameras, organic lenses?
I think the future photography will be better looking with higher qualities cameras, and the cameras will smaller like cameras on glasses. Also the photographs could be 3-D, something like a hologram, instead of 2-D on a paper.
3.Respond to this quote from the article: "It's really weird," says Antonio Olmos. "Photography has never been so popular, but it's getting destroyed. There have never been so many photographs taken, but photography is dying." Do you agree with Mr. Olmos? Why or why not?
I don't agree with Mr. Olmos because photography is still happening but not in a fancy way like professionals do. I'm still seeing great photos, people using photography different now than before doesn't mean the photos aren't good it being creative.
