Camera phone competition May 2014: "Wild nature"
 
This month is all about nature.
Here's what n900hacker said:
"I think that 'wild nature' can be a good theme for the next camera phone competition. Everything wild, like trees, falls, rain, leaves, bushes and forests is accepted. I choose this theme because i think that we're always taking photos of man-made only subjects, so nature can be a good challenge for everyone!"

I think that's about enough.

The rules:
Photos must be taken during this month.
Photos must be taken by the posting member.
Photos must be taken with a camera phone.
Users must name the phone used to shoot the picture.
Users must add a link to the original photo with EXIF.
Users can change the entry only once.
Last three days of this month are for voting.

I don't think there could be a better theme for May. It's very sunny now, can't wait for the school to end! :D

Excellent topic. It means I do not have to participate as this is pretty much the topic I would have chosen if I won :)

Well, if I have to...

Here is my submission. Not very exciting - no wild animals in it, but I like it. A small wood near where I live, covered in bluebells. There are precious few wild places in England to start with and even fewer that are accessible to Joe Public.

Taken yesterday (3 May 2014) with my N900, no pre- or post-processing.

Lovely photo indeed. Nice composition, that fallen tree is a great example of a line that leads you through the picture. Also a nice balance between the foreground and the background, that is again sort of divided by that fallen tree. Well done pichlo!

Thank you, thank you, thank you. But please, I do not want to win by default. Other entries, please! :)

Indeed. But it is just the 6th of May..... usually we wait until the last moment :-)

Whatever, it was a very good submission, in spite of your English diffidence.

I believe the topic means things not managed by humans, with an emphasis on nature. So Pichlo's photo absolutely falls within but a botanical garden would not.

I was walking around yesterday evening and I took a couple of photos of the sunset/forest/lake. I Didn't know there was a competition so I was lucky to take some photos. And a competition isn't a competition with just one entry. So here's my entry:

Beautiful capture.
I will try and capture something soon.
Just 4 more days left to participate people!

kapu2 2014-05-25 06:56

it's no where near as beautiful as ostimper's sunset on the water, but i snapped a picture of a robins nest that i stumbled upon while rock climbing earlier today. :)

Edit: forgot to mention this was shot with an n9!

The turquoise blue of those eggs is stunning..... a lot of mouths to feed down the road.

Nokia N9, Camera+. I had a few nice macro shots this month, but I'm totally fascinated with leaf veins ;)

I urge viewers to click on the picture - really. Those veins are amazing. The small forum image does the photo no justice.

They remind me of an aerial photo of paddyfields.

I dont know if the asphalt will kill the wild of the picture but since i almost step on this little Boa while jogging a few minutes ago, i'd like to share with you how close the wild nature is from my day by day:D :D :D

Yeah great shots! I got up today at 4.30AM to shoot a sunrise and this is the wildest nature I could find.
Shot with my N900.

#3 kapu2. A wonderful example of serendipity.

BTW, loading this page in the Maemo browser has has rebooted my N900. As it has so many times before. I should learn to avoid these threads on a voting day :)
