481st Show & Tell Competition: Different Point of View - WINNER
Posted: Mon Aug 06, 2018 3:46 am
Many thanks to everyone who participated in this contest challenge. Your entries were wonderful for multiple reasons~
Point of view, of course;
originality and visual storytelling;
making common things visually new and dynamic;
challenging the senses; and
even humor. Thank you each one for this peer opportunity to enjoy and cherish your work.
First Place~ Amoxtli for dynamic lines, fascinating form, excellent clarity, original composition dependent on creative point of view. Wow! Walter!

Second Place~ Mardoli for dramatic visual storytelling; color, line (those stairs leading the eye up and up); evoking multiple senses. This composition put a new twist on point of view. Splendid! Marisa!
Third Place~ Cits_4_pets for making an everyday experience with an 'object' (window blinds) new, dynamic, a stand-out by paying attention to point of view. Exciting composition Flo!
Honorary Mentions
1st: Heffa for a creative point of view (Mt Rainier); a beautiful composition with strong lines, original framing, texture, clarity, together evoking a sense of awe. Thank you Jeff.
2nd: Mardoli for a strong, original composition evoking humor (upside down roses) as well as drama and story. Truly artistic, Marisa! Thank you!
3rd: Gillk for creative point of view of an outstanding macro (Clematis seed head); great clarity, color, detail, texture. Brilliant Gill!
4th: Grompen for a truly original, strong Impressionistic portrait of a family from the point of view (seen through) a waterfall. High art in some circles Markus! Thanks for exercising my imagination.
5th: This was a difficult choice because so many submitted great images including Jola, Gill (Salmon run), Mclew, humorous Jarekm. Yet I have to decide on only one more so I have chosen Amoxtli for the composition that takes the mind to another world, as it were, through a creative point of view, strong form and lines, great shadows and architecture; leading the eye to something unseen. Dynamite Walter!
Again, thank you each one! Keep seeing and mapping what you see!
Your turn Walter!
