Cell phone apps

With the development of Paper Camera, Retro Camera, FX Camera (just to name a few)... photographs don't really need to have an interesting subject. It seems like the effects of the filters are cool enough that taking a photo of a rock is suddenly an awesome photo. It is sad on one hand, but on the other hand, when you think about old photos in your parents photo albums, what is it that makes them interesting? Is it the dated subject matter? The sepia finish? The square format? Or is it just that it is someone you know?

Some of my favorite photos of people are blurry, dark, and not something you would typically call a good photo.

I'm just rambling here... :)
