Bi-weekly Photo Comp Week #18 - Minimalism

[Solo]

[/CENTER]

The rules are as follows:

• Entries will accepted until 10:00pm (GMT) Wednesday 27th February
• Each competition's voting will last for one week. The winner of that round will choose the next theme.
• All entries must have been taken within the last 6 months and preferably after the announcement of the theme.
• Entries must be posted as a thumbnail no larger than 700px on the longest edge. Full sized images may be as larger as you'd like.*
• You must submit only your own photographs, do not post anyone else's work.
• Only one photograph per person, marked with Final Entry. You can change your entry, but must remove your current entry first and clearly state that you have posted a new entry.
• You must not vote for your own photograph when the Poll is up. Only vote for a photograph taken by another entrant.
• The photograph must be submitted with the following information: Subject, Date and Camera used and, if you'd like, the major camera settings - shutter speed, ISO, etc.

*While full sized images may be as larger as you'd like, you should try to limit them to approximately 1200px to enable viewing the entire image without scrolling. It's much easier to see the full effect of the shot when you can view it all at once and not have to pan.

Current theme, chosen by Week #16 winner Azuremen

Minimalism. Clean and simple backgrounds and relatively basic compositions and subjects, like silhouettes or shallow focal planes.

Apologies for the delay in getting this weeks theme up, I was way behind on sorting my PM's to Cody out.

Great theme! 👍

Considering I don't have much of the camera at the moment I may have to take advantage of the "taken within the last 6 months" rule, or I may see what I can do with some film. Should be fun!

Final.

Panasonic DMC-G2
Exposure 0.002 sec (1/500) || Aperture f/1.7

As I said using an old photo and the one I could find that seemed to fit the minimalism theme best.

Brilliant shot, Rue. Though, when I view it on black, just the faintest white strip along the bottom from another balcony bit thing. Like a couple of pixels, but mostly just my OCD flaring up. The contrast is subtle and lets the eye explore lots of neat details that aren't immediately apparent as well.

 

[Rue]

Thanks mate! Actually I had never seen the image on black so didn't notice the line. I can clear that up.

I'll give it till I have the next theme before setting the poll for this.
I now have the theme and will close this at midnight GMT, so in one hours time.

Damn, I wanted to give this one a shot... Worse part is that I had the change to take some shots the past weekend, but didn't remeber this.

Oh well.
