Camera phone competition August 2017: Elements of Design
 
Ok... I was running out of ideas so i've "borrowed" this theme ( and even the text) from here. Any doubts can be clariified visiting the website wich contains some examples.

Elements of Design
"We are looking for photos that showcase line, shape, pattern, form, texture, perspective, etc. They can consist of any subject matter.
Perspective
Line
Pattern
We are also looking for images that demonstrate cool photographic techniques, such as bokeh and motion blur.
This category is NOT for:
Graphic design illustrations made in a program like Adobe Illustrator and extreme digital creations do not belong in this category. Here we are looking for the elements of design - line, shape, pattern, etc."

Not an uber-connoisseur,
so I had to go look up bokeh :p

This could be an excellent competition

Quite hard to pull off "bokeh" with such a small sensor.. only if you have 808 :cool:

Nevertheless cool theme. Happy to live near Rotterdam and the building patterns are great there (Applies to any (big) modern city)

Ok. here is my entry. A shot of the Oculus building at the World Trade Center in NYC. Photo was taken with a Huawei Mate 9. Default settings. I cropped out about 10% and then resized it to 25% of original to upload it here.

Great pictures allready...

Mine is about light as a decoration.

I truly did not want to photograph architecture or,
as in this photo, constructions of any sort.

However, the sunlight was gloriously blinding and I could not resist.


n900 (BlessN900, of course) with no adjustment or elsewise.

heheh, yes.

Actually the story behind my entry; I got a new fiber-to-home last week and the picture is from inside the terminal box.

When I got it I of course immediately opened the device to see what's inside and took some pictures of the motherboard, then I noticed that the aluminium cooler element on top of the chipset looked kinda cool and took some shots of it with tight framing :D

As a side note, this is really what I was looking for, and I found it :cool:
