Weekly Challenge # 328 Shapes, Lines & Patterns
Posted By: wissink, 09-20-2015, 12:10 PM

As a visually impaired person, I regularly miss the finer visual details of life. This challenge will focus on what I notice most, "Shapes, Lines & Patterns." I think focusing on these things are great practice for noticing basic building blocks of composition as well as learning to see interesting things in the mundane.

FYI, the challenge ends on Sept 26th.

Everyone is eligible to send in their best interpretation of the given theme, as long as the photo is taken with a Pentax/Samsung camera. Themes can be subject-oriented or technique-oriented.

Rules
1. Post ONE photo (max 1024x1024).
2. The photo must portray an interpretation of the theme.
3. Post your single picture in this thread and explain what motivated you to take the picture and/or how you feel it represents the weekly theme (especially if it's not obvious).
4. The challenge is interactive. Any response is welcome.
5. The judge will pick the WINNERS and choose one of them to be the judge for the next week.
6. This challenge runs for 7 days plus an additional day for the judge to choose the winners.
7. Any Pentax (or Samsung DSLR) camera can be used.
8. Pictures can be from any time frame, not just within the week of the current theme.
9. In case the winner of a challenge is unable to become the judge for the next challenge, they will PM the #2 winner for that person to be the judge.

I have to say-- I like this week's theme, and I think it's generating some really great (and creative) pictures!

High / Low

Do the brighter or the darker areas of the picture stand out? Take some time, and you can make your brain to switch between seeing both :-)

This is a re-processing of a photo i already posted that i think fits the theme. I chose B/W so that color does not distract the viewer from the wealth of complex lines and patterns drawn by the architects and by the sun rays coming down from the windows.
