I always wonder how all of you can post their pictures so early. I wait the hole month for opportunities and then select the picture I like most to submit it.

Nice pictures nonetheless!

And sometimes I forget to select one before the deadline

I, too usually wait for the last few days to upload my entry. But a seldom-used rule in the contest is that you can change your entry once. So if you find something you love, you could go ahead and post it early knowing that if, at the end of the month, something better comes along you can switch.

Mine was very old OT-pictures... I'm waiting some idea and hope it won't take too long...

Ever heard that song, "Hymn to the Big Sky"?
Xperia X Compact; SF 3.0.3.9; stock camera with default settings; I edited with a hi-def filter and cropped to 4:3 with SF built-in editor in Gallery app...

Damn. I tried the obvious picture-of-the-sky too but it turned out too pants for submitting and now I can't even try again since you beat me to it.

Never mind, it would not really fit the topic anyway. The topic is "Lighting", not "Light". The way I understand the topic, it should be about taking a photo of any subject using a particularly interesting arrangement of illumination and/or shadow. Back to the drawing board it is.

Re: Camera phone competition May 2019: Lighting
 

I had the same thought, but I liked the way it came out, and I figured the subject could be the clouds, or the water... Sadly, I had a couple of better ones, but I failed to keep my own flash-junky policy about immediately backing up anything wanted, and had to wipe my userdata to restore a brick, so I lost them... Well, I still have a chance to change it once.

^Only if You find better one... I think this suite well with topic ... The sea is very nice "Lighting" and You show also where the light comes from... Very beautiful picture!

Re: Camera phone competition May 2019: Lighting
 

Indeed! To clarify, I did not mean that your pucture would not fit the topic. As catbus said, it does! I meant that mine wouldn't.
