It is an easy process to take a picture on your iPhone 5 that is running iOS 7. It is so easy, in fact, that you might start taking pictures of almost everything that you consider to be important or memorable. But some of these pictures will turn out bad, or are unnecessary, so they are just taking up space on the device. Luckily these pictures can be deleted from the iPhone to free up space for other things, like new apps or videos.
