Welcome to the 78th monthly Official Esato phone camera shootout competition!

June 2014 - Loneliness

This is my second time hosting the competition and it's a great honour.



I hope you like this months theme, it doesn't just have to be the sad implication. You can be the lonely happy one inside a sad crowd.





Good luck and have fun!

@XperiaJunkie When you're signed in as the owner of the photo and goto the photo page you should see rotate left and rotate right buttons above the image.

Use these.

The image may not appear to have rotated properly when you open the thread page, this is because of the way modern browsers cache images.

To force reload [CTRL]+[F5] or [SHIFT]+[CTRL]+[R] and it should show rotated.

^ Cheers for that. It's very quiet so far this month only 2 entries and we're almost half way through. Fingers crossed we get some more entries soon as it is cracking theme.

Great photo! What phone did you use?

Posted by hihihans
@Tesndro, click the link "original" below the picture. It takes you to the esato photo_section. There you can read that Bonovox used a Nokia Lumia 520.
Please feel free to enter this competition.

Use a phone to capture the loneliness.

Yes the cheap 5mp Lumia phones can take a decent image,in the right hands Who needs to pixel peep on an image of a stunning bay like that?? You won't see no fine grains of sand

Posted by Marly
Exactly, great example of what a budget Lumia is capable of
But you've been lucky with the weather too, Wales doesn't always look like that

Posted by Bonovox
Wales has alot if rain more so than parts of England. The wettest place in England is Lake district. There's an advert saying the rain in Wales,it's good for the lamb and good for the land 😊

Heh, we (me & cupcake30) were there on the Monday prior to you being there on the Friday, took almost the same photo too !

You could have bought me a pint if you'd been a few days earlier. I hope you went down to the beach, I think its the best beach in the UK by a wide margin. Especially since theres a shipwreck down there from the 1800's !

Oh wow cool!! Well,it was voted in top 3 best beaches in Europe. We walked down to the beach yes but there had been a landslide and the steps had gone so there was only an awkward dangerous walk down to the last bit


Posted by etaab
I was last there in 2007 and the steps were never that easy to walk down even back then. The landslide had happened when we were there, so we just followed two guys with surfboards down another section, even though it was quite difficult to get down in walking shoes.

Rhossili is a fantastic little place, I hope I get to go again soon and not have to wait another 7 years !

Posted by Bonovox
Well took us about two hours or so from Birmingham stopping just once. My fave place with great childhood memories is Tenby & Pembrokeshire. Went back there recently too

^Well, let host xell decide if that's a valid entry. Hope it ain't another "still lake" issue.
