    if you have a smart phone play around with the settings. i set the constrast and sharpness very high and the brightness very low. holding the phone steady and flush with the glass is key. whenever you take a picture and you are parabolic (not parallel) to the glass it will distort everything. i just press the phone right up to the glass if i can (see below). another key is that with my phone (and im sure most smart phones) i get the best pics when I zoom in all the way and the camera is just past the threshold of being so close to the subject that it cannot focus on it. so in other words, zoom in all the way, and be as close as you can while still being able to focus and/or have your entire subject in frame. thats my advice. if none of that made sense i apologize
