Take a look around you right now. What sort of patterns do you see?
From where I’m sitting I see patterns in a hardwood floor… a pattern in my carpet…a striped pattern on my living room chairs…
Outside I notice the pattern of the brick terrace…the wooden fence… tiled shingles on my neighbor’s garage.
For this month’s challenge, first, take note of these natural and man-made patterns that surround you in your daily life. Then, look even closer to find interruptions in those patterns.
Here are a few examples to get you started:
** Object photos where on object stands out from the rest
** People photos where one person stands out from the crowd
** A pattern interrupted by a change in color
Submissions for August’s Challenge are due by 8:00 a.m. EST on Monday, August 30. You can submit your photos by clicking on the "Enter to Win" tab on our website.
Remember -- only ONE photo per person is allowed in the Challenge. If you submit multiple photos, they’ll be deleted and you’ll be out of the running.
Our first-place winner will get a $30 gift certificate for the AWAI E-Bookstore, and the first-, second-, and third-place winners will all be entered into the Hall of Fame to compete for a $2,000 Grand Prize in October.
Be sure to check out all of the details and our contest guidelines here.
Get creative, and good luck!
