Camera phone competition March 2019: Local Attractions
 

What i personally liked most about this competition and the variety of photos is whenever someone elaborates a bit on the story behind it and thus getting to know you as the photographer a little bit more.

To encourage you to give a little caption with the Photo i thought about how to make that easy without crossing the line to this becoming a social media cheesy kind of experience.

So here is my question. Why do you enjoy living where you live, what makes staying in your place worthwhile? Give us a hint with your photo of your all local attractions.

Be it the super early strawberries in your region, the subway station only a few steps from your door giving you freedom, nicely relaxing landscapes, familiar landmarks or underrated spots in your city?
Even if you hate where you live, show us what might attract locals and tourists or on the contrary things that help you stay alive as your very very local attraction :D

Rules are as usual:

• Photos must be taken during this month (after theme is announced) and posted before voting starts
• 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 (and software if not stock)
• Post processing is allowed but you have to say what you did
• 3 days voting period starts on March 28th at 20:00 UTC

Not to many days left of March, so here's my contribution.
My very own and very local attraction. One of few remaining outhouse privy's on these latitudes. Built 1929 and of course not in use anymore. I just can't make my self take it down. :D

Sailfish X on Sony Xperia X and stock photo app.
Crop and rotation in Gimp.

Nice one eson.
I can see Kalle Blomkvist hiding somewhere :D

Exactly 6 days to go.
As much as i could cope with this being a failed theme selection and declare a quick winner on 28th already, i would love to see more Photos!

I am holding my picture back until the next contestants entry ;)

Re: Camera phone competition March 2019: Local Attractions
 

Well, I think you are confusing Kalle Blomkvist with The Children of Bullerbyn Village, but that is of course another story. ;)

Maybe he meant Nils Holgersson? ;)

Well, i might have a weird mash-up of Lindgren stories in my head. Pardon me.
After seconds of research i now know i actually ment "Emil i Lönneberga". He is translated to "Michel" in german for unkown reasons.

I have had an idea where to take a picture and what to say about it but don't yet know am I able to shoot that picture. Should get to stangers home to take it. Good subject for a contest. Made me think why and what I like where I live.

https://mosushi.de/misc/photocomp/ma...ndcontrast.jpgSo here is my picture. Took it outside of our big super market mall centre. The sub of Helsinki city where I live is named Kannelmäki, kannel= a 5 string ancient instrument, and mäki= a hill. But this area is so filled with dogs that it has been given a nickname, kennelmäki. If you like dogs (as I do) it is great 'cause every day you can see a lots of different dogs and get to play with them. On the other hand there is a fallback: many people do not gather their products from the street. So even though the look of this dog is probably because the dog is so ashamed of what it is wearing I interpret it that it is the counter shame of their masters who leave the products on the street: so sorry but I can't pick them by myself.

N900 stock camera app + mild cropping and adjusts of brightness and contrast.
