Quote from the website:

What is The Best Camera?
The Best Camera Is The One That’s With You™, but it’s also an inspirational 3-part “ecosystem” created by world-renowned photographer, Chase Jarvis. Introducing an iPhone app that allows you to shoot, edit and share your images; a book that celebrates photography with any camera; AND a thriving, online community made of iPhone images from around the world.

Photo of front of old car captured with the iPhone 3Gs and processed with the iPhone PhotoForge application and with ShakeItPhoto to provide the Polaroid look.

Unsharp mask filter was applied to the photo using PhotoForge and then erased from the car body so that only the headlights and front grill were sharpened. Poor man’s masking! The vibrance filter was added to give it a blueish tint before loading it in ShakeItPhoto.
