When someone mentions that their smartphone has a single lens, they’re usually referring to what’s called the rear, or back-facing lens, not the selfie lens that faces you and allows you to take a photo of yourself (more on selfies in Chapter 2). If your smartphone only has one lens, which is usually called a wide-angle lens, don’t feel left out! Most of the great documentary, photojournalism, and street photographers of the past and present have created their best work with a single wide-angle lens. You can do the same.

Figure 1-1 shows off the small but powerful single wide-angle lens on the Google Pixel 4a. Keep in mind that the lens is the darker circle, and the white circle is the flash.
