The Official Camera Phone Shootout Competition May 2012: "Macro/Closeup"


Click to view updated thread with images




Posted by Flinston
Hi! I have checked how previous competitions have looked like. Hope that I have created something which is very similar. Theme of this month is: Macro/Closeup. Think that topic is easy and wide and everybody who wants to take part in this competition should find something interesting to capture.

Some examples:







RULES

1: Pictures must be taken with a mobile phone by that member.
2: Only 1 photo with allowance for only 1 change.
3: No archive photos & photos must be taken in May 2012.
4: Post full size photo here http://www.esato.com/phonephotos/ & post a link to that photo
5: Picture post processing not allowed

Good luck!

Nice theme. Can think of many macro type shots.

Posted by emporium
I don't mind macro, but it has been 3 times till now, Ultra, Panorama and Regular, History of shootout competition

Posted by annafee
Sorry about that.

@emporium
Last macro shootout was more than 2 years ago.

Posted by Flinston
Thanks tranced. I have problems with getting my samples to smaller size.

As OffLineR said. Last macro theme was about 2,5 years ago so I thought it would be good to recall it.

Now that I notice it, flinston is one month old in the forum and he just won one competition.

That's the good thing about this competition, compared to the "top 100",
new or old member, with Sony or other brand phone, everybody gets a fair chance here

Posted by Bonovox
Yes,indeed. It took me years to finally win in January or December I forget. And along comes a newbie & wins

Nice shot!! Guarulhos

I have a little concern about the theme,using macro lenses are allowable? Well I hope not.

Great shot Guarulhos. Fantastic colours. One of best shots made by you.

It would be better of not using macro lenses because not everyone have it. I'm follower of equal chnces for all who are taking part in this contest.

This is the correct link: http://www.esato.com/phonephotos/viewphotos.php?pid=56201
It's a nice shot although the white balance is a bit off, it somehow looks greenish.

Posted by tranced
Fixed

This theme is somewhat WOW. Macro is awesome and it brings a lot of creativity.

Posted by OffLineR
@redhunter
Great colors, great composition.

I need to try harder

Posted by 9_Destiny
@ redhunter and @ io_bg

Great macros guys. It's going to be an interesting competition this month.

Posted by hihihans
Clean your lenses. The battle has started

Posted by redhunter
Thanks all.
Thanks Tranced for fixing the link. No idea why it was broken in first place...

I'm going to drop water on my phone's lense to see if I could enhance the marco for something better hehe

Posted by tranced
Collecting all the macro's as possible.
