Here's a shot of me that was taken by someone with a Blackberry cell phone. That's right, a Blackberry.
LOL love that shot, was that hawk trained? Do I see lanyards on his/her legs? If not that must have been quite startling to see a Hawk land on your camera.

Yes, good eye. It's a trained hawk. I was shooting with hawkers (like falconers, only they use hawks), and this one decided my 500mm lens would make a nice perch.

Nice.

On this forum, I see a lot of great cell phone pix that I personally enjoy much more than some of the ones shot with expensive, complicated dSLR's.

To the OP, take lots and lots of pix with your phone, learn how to get the most from your shots. I have a couple pro-photographer friends who use their iPhones, so it can be done.

Enjoy!

That's one of the coolest pictures I've seen. Looks like you didn't really need that long lens. (But the bird apparently liked it.)

I use a Samsung Fascinate and the pics it generates are actually quite good in terms of dynamic range, detail, color, etc. It doesn't blow out highlights or any of the things commonly found in the last generation and older, of cell phones. I think the newest generation of smart phone cameras have upped themselves to this level for the most part. Regarding the sample pics shown from the 1.3 MP phone earlier though - no, I'm not keen on the quality of those for web or otherwise, unfortunately.
