Camera phone competition May 2015:"Living things"
May is here along with the sunshine. This means that everyone is out doing activities. The theme for this moth is living things, every thing that moves.
pichlo will enlighten us: "The idea is to celebrate life. It could be your pet gerbil, a bowl of petunias, a 1000 years old oak tree, a fish tank in a zoo, kids frolicking in the playground... or even a macro of some bacteria culture under a microscope."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 post only one photo per entry Users can change the entry only once Users must name the phone they used (so I could include it for voting and such) Last three days of this month are for voting Happy shooting. You can't really go wrong with this one. :) Last month's theme. |
Re: Camera phone competition May 2015:"Living things"
I originally set out to take pictures of all of the dead June Bugs by my door, but as soon as I got close, they all started to scramble! These two were crawling all over each other once I started taking their picture. Wild...
Shot with my 808. https://www.dropbox.com/s/6rgi5upu8c...c4f_o.jpg?dl=1 Having issues again.... Here is the link. |

The "upper" little guy is a really brave one. He found probably most frightening, yet the safest place in whole terrarium... Ah. N9, of course. |

Yet another one of my hobbies. The left one is mead, the right one is elderflower "wine". Both started two days ago, both bubbling away beautifully. Taken this morning, 27/05/2015, with an N900.
Attachment 37133 (In case you were wondering, the "living things" in the picture are the yeast. Millions and millions of them. Also, elderflowers and of course honey come from or are made by living things :)) |

My N900 was quick enough to capture this image of my uncle's Godmother cat, still alive but only a week before she died in her 22nd spring time. :( Original file: http://1drv.ms/1eziweg |

I was so busy with school and the time was terrible so I couldn't contribute this month and I'm tired of excuses but we'll see who wins this time and what the next theme will be... Voting rules: Vote for only one entry Don't vote for yourself No changing allowed I vote for BluesLee. |
Re: Camera phone competition May 2015:"Living things"
Tough choice. All very good entries this month. After much consideration, I have settled, with only a fraction of a point ahead of the rest, on
#11 ste-phan (That's despite the fact that I do not like cats. Our whole neighbourhood is infested with them and they all come to poop in my garden. But I love the composition, the focus, the posture and facial expression and of course the story.) |
Re: Camera phone competition May 2015:"Living things"
All very nice pictures indeed!
I vote for 9.briest. Brave little buggar... ;-) |
Re: Camera phone competition May 2015:"Living things"
I shall also vote for #9, Briest. Those scales just look gorgeous in that shot.
BTW, was there a problem with Imaginaryenemy's picture of june bugs? |
Re: Camera phone competition May 2015:"Living things"
Why is Imaginaryenemy's photo not on vote list?
Wanted to vote for him. =========== Edit: vote for 13.imaginaryenemy |
Re: Camera phone competition May 2015:"Living things"
I also vote for
9.briest. It's clear that after mankind these buggars will clean up ;) |
Re: Camera phone competition May 2015:"Living things"
I think 9 :)
|
Re: Camera phone competition May 2015:"Living things"
3 for me please.

I vote for briest. |
Re: Camera phone competition May 2015:"Living things"
#9 Briest.....
|
Re: Camera phone competition May 2015:"Living things"
I'm sorry imaginaryenemy, I somehow omitted your picture. I put your photo in the voting post..
|
Re: Camera phone competition May 2015:"Living things"
In that case my vote goes to #13 imaginaryenemy. Great shot and photo quality.
This might be considered for next competition: Voting might be more interesting having one vote for say 10 pts (in my case #13) and optional 9 pts (i choose #9) and finally 8 pts (i choose #1). In my opinion this reflects the low number of voters and appreciates the photos better. |

I like more pictures, less voting. Maybe a top 3 by any participant and votes count for the package? Sorry if this has been discussed in the past and I wasn't paying attention.. |
Re: Camera phone competition May 2015:"Living things"
My vote goes to roflmaoo. I love the composition and the expression of your dog. Also, the picture has very nice colours considered the usual green tint that RAWs captured with FCAM have.
As a comment, perhaps next time you could also consider cropping away what I imagine being a part of you :) |
Re: Camera phone competition May 2015:"Living things"
I think that I should improve the voting system somehow but why overcomplicate it?
I'm thinking of only adding one day more for voting if more people have the same number of votes, only that. Anything above that would need a few more days of voting I think and I think that 3 days are well enough with one more day for voting if there is a tie. |
13 Imaginaryenemy
great macro shot. Really a many nice pics this month. A plethora of nice pics. |
Re: Camera phone competition May 2015:"Living things"
Good pictures again!
I am somewhat tied between wrm and imaginaryenemy, both pictures have nice detail and clean composition. Because of better DOF control I'll say 13. imaginaryenemy this time :) |
Re: Camera phone competition May 2015:"Living things"
#7 kapu2. Nymphalidae are special ;)
|
Re: Camera phone competition May 2015:"Living things"
I'll vote for #12 - comee!
|
Re: Camera phone competition May 2015:"Living things"
Really tough choice this time, all pictures are great,
vote goes to #4 Copernicus |
Re: Camera phone competition May 2015:"Living things"
Hey everyone, new month is here and that means the end of school for me in two weeks. I will be so sad about that... :P
I will finally have time to participate and maybe discuss some improvements that need to be done to this competition. If any of you have some ideas feel free to discuss it with me and others in this thread. Let's keep the competition thread clean(er) in the future, OK? :) Here are the voting results, finally. 1st place - briest, 5 votes (Casanunda, Copernicus, wrm, imaginaryenemy, saponga) http://lemur.hg.pl/i/p/jm4i6f.jpeg Shot with the Nokia N9. 2nd place - imaginaryenemy, 4 votes (chenliangchen, BluesLee, robthebold, juiceme) 3rd place - ste-phan, 2 votes (pichlo, ste-phan) 4th place - BluesLee, comee, Copernicus, kapu2, rm350j, 1 vote each (Half-Life_4_Life, kapu2, valiant29, briest, sixwheeledbeast) I'll contact briest now to see what will be the theme for this month's camera comp and lastly, thanks everyone for participating, voting or just looking. |
