Brock Davis' [iPhone](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pgytech-retrova) photographs take ordinary objects and infuses them with human emotions and characteristics that help us to see the wonder in what are typically considered to be banal items.

With just a [simple iPhone camera](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/iphone-17-concept) and his imagination, Brock Davis turns a rip in a pair of jeans into a ninja, a simple old egg roll and the container it comes in turns into a coffin and a glass of milk with a spoon in it becomes a smiling face. Incredibly unique, filled with creativity and clever juxtapositions, Brock Davis' iPhone photos can't help but make you smile.

Brock Davis continues to experiment with [iPhone photography](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-leica-lux-app), and the photos shown above are just a portion of some of the great works found in his portfolio.
