It seems that people think my photo does not fit the category of "organic geometry" ~sigh~... Oh well.... my wife who also is taking part in this one, thought mine would do better in the free study challenge. But as I went out to take this photo with this specific challenge in mind and sat there for over an hour to take the shot, I wanted to enter it here. I just can't stop looking at the photo and the subject.... because I just loveeeee it. It doesn't matter what my score is, I just love it. Wishing you all the best, hope the voters are kind to you all..... now bring on the free study challenge.!

I convinced my dad to join the site and this challenge is his first one.. he'll probably beat me, mine was kind of a shoehorn job.

Awesome start!!! Hope it holds for you!

Mine's up and down and up and down. But that's ok, it's not something I'm crazy about. :)

Falling, falling. On a fast track to my normal range...

'Organic Geometry' has a dual definition in art. A geometric pattern in organic matter or an organic pattern in non-organic matter. So the subject matter theoretically could be either organic or non-organic. Which throws open the question of what was intended in this challenge. Either or both?

Let me guess - your entry is non-organic and getting slammed in voting? LOL

Here's where I'm at.

That's not really the question, though: the question actually is, "Do I want to win a ribbon in this challenge?" and if your answer to the question is "YES!" then the NEXT question is, "What will the voters probably be looking for, and how can I present it in a visually stunning way?"

For what it's worth, this comes from the challenge descriptions: "Find a subject which displays the geometry of something organic." That's a slightly ambiguous wording, but MOST people will read it as "Find something organic that shows geometry", basically.

None of the front page photos are "visually stunning." Even the one I like isn't "stunning" per se.

I'm not saying they ARE, but that's the right question to be asking if you're ribbon-hunting, pretty much.

And all this time I thought it was, "Why are the voters trying to keep me down, and how can I stick it to the man?"
 09/26/2014 11:01:30 PM · #19
yeah, me too, man.

Who honestly cares about ribbons and scores, just enjoy Photography

Seems my theme has been high-jacked! It's not about scores or ribbons, but it seems you are all the obsessed by them, this is about definitions. But I'll give up gracefully now.

In the visual arts, shapes are often categorized as "organic" or "geometric". Find a subject which displays the geometry of something organic.
The details is very Very Very VEry VERy VERY confusing!!!!!
