Monthly Assignment April 17th-May 15th: Geometry, patterns, shapes.

This months Assignment is about lines, shapes and/or textures. Lines could be converging, diverging, going in circle or square. We want you to find and photograph something that has geometry, repeated patterns or shapes. Remember that the pictures have to be taken inside the Assignment's calendar (April 17th-May 15th). So, get out there, look and find these special patterns and get that shot done.

Enjoy your Nikons!


Assignments are designed to help you grow your photography skills and creativity, and have fun doing so. Assignments are to make all of us photographers think outside the box also.

The Rules
  1. Any photo submitted for a monthly assignment must be taken during the month specified in the assignment thread and taken by you! Because not all EXIFdata can be verified, we will use the honor system.
  2. Photos must be posted to the thread in order to be considered for the challenge. Links to photos will not be considered an entry.
  3. Only three photo entries per member, for each assignment, unless otherwise indicated.
  4. Assignments will be judged solely by the panel. Individual voting via post "likes" will be incorporated into the final selection of the winning photo.
  5. Judging criteria is based on the Twelve Elements of a Merit Image.
  6. The panel will select 5 shots to be displayed in the Monthly Challenge forum and homepage of the site.
There will be no cash or prizes awarded for the Weekly Challenge, unless specifically noted by the site administrator.

Any photo will be accepted for the assignment. Edited/straight out of the camera, it does not matter. You are left with complete freedom to do whatever genre of photography you wish to do, and your own interpretation of the assignment subject.

Well here is my 1st entry as a new member... patterns & texture with lots of lines.. but not very straight ones! Not entirely sure this is what was the intended subject matter but it fits in my head! Are entries meant to fit all criteria or just some?

Taken today in my local woods, image of an old fallen tree

It's a screw from a PC case, taken top-down. The background is a pattern on the box I keep my screws in.

OK guys and gals. I have something to ask in order to facilitate our judging task with the assignment.

I would ask you to refrain from posting comments on this assignment thread. Your "likes" should be enough to help us decide which pics were the most popular. When too many people respond, we end up with too many pages that we have to get through in order to see what was posted and which ones we or others liked.

So, I'll ask you just to look and if there is something you particularly like, just click on the "like" link.

Posts containing comments will be removed and deleted before judging.

Thanks.

Here is my first entry it is kind of "ey" to me but it is a pattern and it is only my first entry. I will have to keep my eye our for a more interesting pattern.
