Ah, that's what you were trying to do. Your original email sounded like you
just didn't want it to recurse into subdirectories.
An easier solution than what you ended up with is to specify a trailing
slash after the dir names since that tells rsync you want to copy the
content of a directory rather than the directory by name:
rsync -riv --progress --include '*.jp*g' --include '*.png' --include
'*.dng' --include '*.raw' --include '*.nef' --exclude '*'
/my/phone/root/dir/{Duo,DCIM,WhatsApp}/ /my/backup/directory/for/images/
..wayne..
