Phone Camera Competition April 2022: "On the edge"
 

Hello everybody,

This time, I'll try not to use a theme that had already been used.:o:rolleyes:

So after summerizing all the themes for...well, a too long time, I discovered the
History of TMO camera phone competitions! thread
Would be great to update it but it's a long work.

This month, the theme is "On the edge".
Not sure of the translation, I mean "on the limit", "near to fall on the other side", "on the frontier(not only countries of course)".

Good luck!

Rules (just copy-pasted):
Photos must be taken during this month and posted before voting starts (photos must be taken between announcing the theme and starting the voting).
Photos must be taken by the posting member.
Photos must be taken with your phone's camera.
Post processing is allowed but you have to say what you did.
Users must name the phone and software they used.
Users post only one photo per entry.
Users can change the entry only once.
3 day voting period starts on April 27th at 20:00 UTC and ends at 23:59:59.99 on April 30th.
Winner of the vote should choose the next month competition theme.
You are allowed to continue off topic on this thread after competition.

Not sure if simpler, just different. Differences highlighted in bold red below.

- New window appears, hit "browse" and upload your picture.
- click the link appearing in the Manage Attachments window, as pictured:

Attachment 41584

- this will open a new browser tab; go to that tab an copy the attachment ID (part of the URL that says, for example, "attachmentid=41583")
- "Close this window"
- Above "manage attachments", right click on the image name and do "copy link"
- Into the post window, insert an image and paste the copied url the "attach" tag, using the attachment ID obtained above
- it should look like this: [banana]41583[/banana] (replace "banana" with "attach"; I had to obfuscate it to stop TMO interpreting the tags)
- post.

The result:

Attachment 41583

This is kind of "On the edge", if you read/watch between lines/pads...

Re: Phone Camera Competition April 2022: "On the edge"
 

I'd say it's a bit over the edge. ;)

Re: Phone Camera Competition April 2022: "On the edge"
 

I'm having a hard time sharing photos at the moment - I took some nice one's with snow & ice, but it has finally melted, spring is finally getting underway here, and right now I just don't want to share icy/snowy pics however beautiful they are. Enough is enough.

And as always it's hard to find something on the monthly topic.
Well, I made a very random photo yesterday (just to show someone where I'm sitting while writing to them) and later realised it fits the topic somewhat:

I'm actually sitting on another ledge there, so there's an edge above me, and another one under me, so definitely on the edge. It's a stretch, I know.

More pictures, please?

Re: Phone Camera Competition April 2022: "On the edge"

OMG! Last day tomorrow.
You pentona made so such nice picture...gonna be hard to compete till tomorrow!
edit: other ones nice too huh!

Re: Phone Camera Competition April 2022: "On the edge"
 

Here I want to share with you the most beautiful picture in my phone made this month (even ever, perhaps).
After 40 years photography, I am very jealous. It has been done by my 10 yo daughter with her cheap polaroid camera.

So it is really "on the edge".
On the outer edge of what could be accepted in this competition as it's a picture of a picture, both taken in april 2022 but not made by myself.
So you won't be able to make me carry the cross of winning this freaking competition again ! :D:D;)

Re: Phone Camera Competition April 2022: "On the edge"
 

Yeaah, multi-dimentional (theme) -> I meant results, not theme!
pichlo reminded me I went nowhere since 2 years: Time to moove as the spring is coming as showed nonsuch. Straight ahead without using catbus brakes.:)
Hiding cars, rainbows, butterflys and even music!

But eyes+ears, the dimentional-deepest pic is without doubt Mosen one ->
We had a song title "On the edge" on a vinyl where the needle is almost on the edge of the song and even a hyper cool music discovery with some research: https://archive.org/details/BlackAttack-OnTheEdge. Next month, you add the taste? I know you can :p

Maemish has really been over the edge of visibility :D, too bad!

So my vote goes to mosen.

(btw, voting has started)

Re: Phone Camera Competition April 2022: "On the edge"
 

The internet is beautiful. Thanks for digging up. Never cared to look for the album cover or other songs from that album. I only have two 12" maxis from the vinyl set. Listening 25years later, i gotta say its late for that style. Could have easily been 1992ish.

My vote goes to #2 nonsuch.
Its creatively fitting the theme and lets suspect actual activity *cough cough*

Honorary mention for catbus making me check breaks to find out i'll likely need new ones too.

Re: Phone Camera Competition April 2022: "On the edge"
 

My vote goes to mosen, post #12.

Re: Phone Camera Competition April 2022: "On the edge"
 

Me too!

That picture is "on the edge" on so many levels:

• It was submitted close to the deadline
• The stylus is almost at the end of the groove
• The stylus point is standing on the edge, if you zoom in close enough
• The technology was on the edge it its day and is still considered superior by some snobs enthusiasts
• I nearly missed it, but... the LP's title!

Re: Phone Camera Competition April 2022: "On the edge"
 

Sorry for not taking part this time. It was a quite busy month for me. And I was absolutely empty regarding ideas for the theme this month. My vote goes to #1 catbus. I had a quite similar on the edge feeling this month, too, when one of my brake pipes in my car broke while I slammed on the brakes. :(

Re: Phone Camera Competition April 2022: "On the edge"
 

Also have to vote for mosen, not need to write the reasons again pichlo summarized it well.

And besides being perfectly fitting its a beautiful picture too!

I call it The Edge.
There was a seagull on that corner but it flew away .

Re: Phone Camera Competition April 2022: "On the edge"
 

My vote goes to Macros

Re: Phone Camera Competition April 2022: "On the edge"
 

#mosen... can You rip that 4 me? ;)

Re: Phone Camera Competition April 2022: "On the edge"
 

Voting is over.

As results we have:

-Mosen 4 (Pichlo, Macros, Catbus, Ric9k)
-Macros 1 (Pentona)
-Catbus 1 (Fellfroch)
-Nonsuch 1 (Mosen)


The winner of this month is Mosen with his multi-dimensional picture, on the edge in different ways and even musical.

Mosen, congrats!
Your mission, if you accept it, is to drive the May 2022 Phone Camera Competition!

Re: Phone Camera Competition April 2022: "On the edge"
 

Thanks everyone, my pleasure!
Will put up a new theme later this evening.

EDIT:
May 2022 - Cheesy

Re: Phone Camera Competition April 2022: "On the edge"
 

In case Mosen missed your question (or did he mp you the recording:D)
I know it is not the same as an LP sound but you can DL the album there:

There is even flac iirc.

Re: Phone Camera Competition April 2022: "On the edge"
 

Oh, yes, i did not answer. My needles are super worn so you likely have more fun with the archived version ric9k linked. Its the same songs.

Re: Phone Camera Competition April 2022: "On the edge"
 

Nice. The .torrent includes a cue sheet, i.e. you can split the flac into tracks.

Re: Phone Camera Competition April 2022: "On the edge"
 

Since it's a month late and this is not a competition entry, I can afford to post poor quality photos and even post three of them :p

This is Jason, my daughter's guinea pig. Our vet requested a urine sample, so we placed him in the play pen and folowed him around with a syringe. He was desperate to escape and get back to his cage.

In the end, he succeeded. Twice.
