Camera phone competition February 2016:"Landscapes"
 

It's February and it should be a bit more sunny than before for the northern hemisphere. robthebold says:

Let's go with something simple, but still specific enough to spur a little bit of our creativity: landscape. I'd say it could be any kind: mountains and fields, forests and jungles, cityscapes, streetscapes, seascapes, snowscapes, natural or built.

And the weather certainly allows for some nice landscape shooting.

The rules are:
Photos must be taken during this montH
Photos must be taken by the posting member
Photos must be taken with a camera phone
Users post only one photo per entry
Users can change the entry only once
Users must name the phone they used
(so I could include it for voting)
Last three days of this month are for voting

Good luck everyone.

Last month's theme.

Nice theme Robthebold! Hope we have more entries this month!

Re: Camera phone competition February 2016:"Landscapes"
 

Yeah, I'm hoping as well. I certainly don't want another bi-monthly.

Re: Camera phone competition February 2016:"Landscapes"
 

I thought that I could enhance the picture making the landscape goes behind on a second plane. So, I've highlighted that little wall and a specimen of Laguncularia racemosa. Hope that this doesn't unqualified me. :D

N900 as always.
Edit: no post-processing AT ALL.

Question was similar last time ;)
Maybe we could agree that editing is fine, as long as all steps are documented within the post?

I think the voters are competent enough then to take editing into concideration and vote according to theyr personal preference.

Re: Camera phone competition February 2016:"Landscapes"
 

AFAIK a little cropping is allowed but I am against more editing than that because i think this, as a camera competition, it is all about capturing and NOT processing. :)

The view from my office window. As far as office window views go, I think this is not the worst. Took last Thursday (11 February 2016) with a Jolla. I have been procrastinating with uploading because I am still hoping for a rainbow but I suppose I can't have everything ;)

So it is summer already in UK?

Re: Camera phone competition February 2016:"Landscapes"
 

No, it's still winter. I'm in midland today and this morning was -3, probably going to snow tomorrow.

There was frost this morning and we had quite a few cloudy days and strong winds recently but right now the view from my window looks just like the one in the picture.

Spring has arrived early this year. We had daffodils flowering in late January. My fruit trees have started sprouting leaves. Mother nature has gone mad.
