I love my iPhone. I can now embrace my passion for photography without having to purchase expensive cameras, lenses, and all else that an avid photography needs to be able to take good photos. I recently asked a professional photographer what he believes would be a decent starter camera for someone who is serious about mastering photography. Even he raved about the iPhone after briefly mentioning a couple of camera models for me to explore (quote: "But if you have an iPhone..."). So I use just my iPhone, along with wonderful apps (like Instagram and Hipstamatic), enabling us 'amateurs' to produce pretty amazing photos. Here is one I love, taken just before sunset at a garden (model: my dog, Amadeus). And I didn't even know about the 'tilt shift' effect while working on this photo, I'd have to tweak it sometime and make it perhaps more special.
