PORTRAIT SHOTS are Kings in the photography form
I love portraits shots. They were the first types fell in love with when I started using mobile phones with different camera setup; main, wide angle and so on.
I like how you can just blur out the background and everything and just create a focus on a particular subject.
I live in a city where people are harassed for exploring their photographic knowledge. For four years,I explored a lot of sophisticated camera setups including iPhones and Samsung and sometimes whenever I point and shoot.
I still feel very fascinated with some of these shots. To be honest, I prefer iPhone when they come to portrait photography, but I've used my fair share of iPhones, and I prefer a phone that gives me a bit of everything instead of just a photography phone.
This is where the Samsung comes in handy: gives you everything and a little bit of that photography you want. Rather than just a video/photo phone,but limited in reach. I could have gotten an iPhone 17 rather than an S25 Fe.
They're both flagship stuff, but the iPhone was limited in do many ways. I left the watermark. These pictures do not need edits, because they're mostly perfect the way they are.
From my last post I've been traveling a lot and decided to post some of the portraits shots I've taken.
I didn't take a lot of them though. My S25 Fe comes with an auto focus, and sometimes it focuses on subjects and they come out looking like portraits.
These are all shots from a rural setting... What do you think of them?
I also like this kind of photos... I don't like iPhone but indeed it makes good photos, same as you i don't buy a phone just for the photos though
They are good, rural life indeed and it shows how dry is there, resemble a little Sicily rural... What is it in the second picture? A fruit?
Yes, the second picture is a particular vegetable pod. This pod stores the seeds of the vegetable, especially for planting. That particular area had that vegetable planted there, I was fascinated so I took a shot
It seems strange for sure, looks a tropical fruit like a sort of pitaya
Yeah, it's native to West Africa
The newer Samsung cameras really are amazing at landscape shots, they do a great job! You really caught some interesting views, that flower is beautiful. I guess that is a chili plant you have in the third slot, so interesting that they grow everywhere in the world now. To think they came from humble roots in Central America and spread around the world! lol
You found a cute goat at the end the end there. You really are making the most of your new toy, great job!

Yeah, the phone does a decent job, considering I got it for about $650, not easy money, but it was worth the investment.
I saw the flower just as I was taking those shots, and I decided it was good subject, and I shot it at that range, turned out to be one of the most beautiful shots. I have some of my family, but I didn't deem it worthy for public consumption.
As for the chili, yeah, they come very natural and I didn't know they were originally from South America..
As for the goat, yeah, great close-up shot lol. It was great to shoot an animal from such close range.
Nice photo!
I think it's nice, and I think the autofocus has been great on phones lately. Sometimes it takes time to get it focus, but I think it turned out great.
