Weekly photo contest: Paths

[Sam Sabri]

​

This weekend head out and wander. Try and find a cool path near your house and take an interesting picture. That's our theme for thisweek's photography contest - paths.

Paths

Paths are all around us and come in man different forms. You might find a path made of dirt, gravel, cement or some other material. We want to see the kinds of paths you take on your feet (or maybe bike), so no major roads or anything like that.
The path above is from San Capistrano in southern California. It was shot on my Lumia 1520 and slightly edited in Photoshop for Windows Phone. I just adjusted the vibrance a bit to get the blues to pop a little bit more.

Rules

Rules are going to be just like last week. Here they are:

• Picture must be taken with a Windows Phone
• Picture must be uploaded to the contest thread (linked below)
• You have to tell us what device you used to take the picture, and any special software or apps you might have used. Editing your pictures is fine, this is art
• Feel free to add a little back story, we want to know how the picture came to be
• You must have used a valid email address to register here at Windows Phone Central, so I know how to contact the winner
• Only ONE entry per week per person

Social

We're going to continue our social experiment from last week. Share any pictures you take for the contest on Instagram, Twitter and Fhotoroom using the following hashtags. It's a fun way to at a glance check out your competition and get inspiration. Plus we're building a community of Windows Phone mobile photographers!

Here's how it looks this week.

• #WCpc
• #PathWC

This doesn't count as your entry; it's just a fun way to track the photos on social media. Your entry still needs to be in the forums!

Prize

One winner will get a $25 gift card to the Windows Phone Store. You can use it to buy apps and games in the Windows Phone Store, Windows Store or Xbox Store.

We'll pick a winner Tuesday night (November 25) at 11:59 PM ET. Winners will be announced in a blog post for the contest next week.

Good luck and have fun!

Ok, I took this picture like a year ago with my Nokia lumia 620, no editing at all, I was on a family trip and I liked this place, near Quito's new airport, in Ecuador, I'm not completely sure this counts as a path but anyway I'll give it a shot.

I was walking through a beautiful park that is near my house in florida last week and thought of this photo when i saw the photo of the boardwalk you took .I took this photo using my lumia 925 and the lumia pano app. I used PhotoShop express for some minor tweaks to the photo. Hope you enjoy!! :grin:

This was taken with my Lumia Icon (without cyan -_-) and I enhanced the color with Adobe Photoshop Express (only because this was taken on such a cloudy day). This is on a road near Otter Creek Lodge in the Adirondacks, and I took it on October 18th of 2014.
