We have reached a point in society where [cameras are always available](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ai-camera-concept) and we can all double as amateur photographers, and Bobby Scheidemann's photo series takes a satirical approach to that habit. Most of us own cell phones, and most of those cell phones have cameras on them. Since they're on most people at all times, everyone has the capability to take pictures of each moment of life.

Scheidemann's series entitled 'Nothing to Hide' showcases large hands with a camera [taking pictures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-leica-lux-app) of existing [pieces of art or everyday moments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paul-anthony-smith). This demonstrates our desire to put life onto a camera as opposed to living it for yourself. Through his use of beautiful photography, Bobby Scheidemann has been able to photograph our need to capture the moment on film.
