I tell ya, this makes me want to get a new camera and start shooting for fun again.
I’ve never been a pro, and never even did paid work with any regularity. And I’m sure as hell not able to make what I think of photographic art, but it sure as hell was fun. Sold off almost everything years ago though. For whatever reason, phone cameras just don’t “feel” right, and the pictures I get aren’t what I want them to be.
Even if you do nothing with your photos, being out and about and thinking visually, looking for ideas, is all part of it and you can find different things in your environment… weird little nooks and crannies, bugs, interesting texture, it’s all there to be discovered
In the mean time, you can still get some quality photos with a phone camera, plus its usually always accessible, and can also be a ‘visual diary’ of places and photos you want to take with a better piece of kit

But this kind of art? It’s inspiring.
Get yourself a camera and have some fun!
