Abstract: A method and apparatus for capturing stable images are disclosed. An ambient light sensor makes measurements of ambient light. A change in ambient light between two measurements is determined. If the change in ambient light measurements falls in a predefined range, then the change may be attributable to ambient light sensor being blocked by a user to trigger image capturing. Consequently, a camera is triggered to capture an image. Conversely, if the change in ambient light measurement is outside the range, image capturing is not triggered as the change may be attributable to other factors.
