Welcome to the February 2017 contest - "Abstract."
This is a wide open theme, and your photo can be of anything (or nothing, so to speak), but it should convey some kind of visual idea that isn't necessarily tied to the subject itself: it can be "about" pattern, color, shape, texture, etc. If you aren't familiar with the idea of abstract photography, you might start by reading

here.
The usual rules:
1. Have lots of fun!
2. Cameras:
No cameras with sensors larger than 1".
No large format or camera typically requiring a tripod to use.
No interchangeable lens cameras.
No 35mm (D)SLRs or any camera weighing over 1kg.
Cameras permitted (cameras listed as acceptable here supersede rules above):
Mobile phones, old and new, iPods, tablets, toy cameras.
Fixed-lens 35mm and smaller-format film and digital rangefinder and viewfinder style cameras.
Interchangeable or fixed-lens 110film SLRs and Pentax Q.

ANY CAMERA BRAND ALLOWED.
3. Entries will close on Tuesday, February 28, 2017 at Midnight (EST).
4. Maximum image dimensions are 1024x768 (ish) pixels.
5. List camera brand and model with entry for all to see, and exposure data would be nice.
6. No restrictions on when the entries were taken.
