This weeks theme is Photography As Art.
What I'm looking for is an image you have taken that has a strong artistic finish to it, which could be intended from the get-go or accidentally have happened and you didn't see that till back on the computer or in editing. I don't want images of art, but rather images that are artistic in any way. That could be through pattern, repetition, light and shadow use, lines, the surreal, a theme or motif of some sort, it's completely open to interpretation by you.
Here's an example of a simple long exposure sunset image that became art, partly when I got into PP, but partly because I had been chucking ideas around in my minds eye about these giant sand-bags at our local beach for a while before grabbing this one.
Rules:
Be creative and have fun.
You may only submit one photo per contest.
Please do not comment on photos until after the judging has taken place.
The contest runs for exactly one week, starting NOW! (see time/date stamp at the start of this thread.)
At the end of the week, The Judge (last week's Winner) will choose a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place photo, providing as much feedback as possible. (Judge has 24 hours to make decision.)
The 1st place Winner will start a new thread with the topic/theme of their choice, and act as the Judge for that contest. (Winner has 48 hours to create new theme, after that it defers to 2nd place).
