Here's a guy that only takes photos with an iPhone:

If I hadn't told you, you would have thought all were taken with
expensive DSLR equipment.


They are all certainly beautiful photos but anyone in the same place
and time could do the same with their smartphone.


"Could've", the jealous amateur most favorite word

Any good photo need to have a specific parameters met, subject, weather,
location, sun position and whatnot. And if you're at the right time at the
right place, you can take that photo yourself.

Good photographers, be it with a Leica, Hasselblad or an iPhone, are the
ones that just so happens to be, or find, those places and times regularly.

Of course the "eye" of the photographer is the most important.


And that "eye" doesn't care about the megapixels or price of your
equipment. Which sort of is the point.
