Weekly Photo contest: Patterns

[Richard Devine]

Last week's photo contest was inspired by our current busy season of travel. This week, it's the same source of inspiration that provided me an idea for a much different theme. Patterns. The image up top I took at London King's Cross station on my Lumia 830 ? with a little Photoshop tweaking after ? of the roof. It's the same pattern repeated across the main concourse and when lit up at night is quite striking.

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 Central, so I know how to contact the winner
- Only ONE entry per week per person

This pic was taken at an ancient site in Abhaneri (Rajasthan, India). Taken on my Lumia 920 and cross processed with picsart. Chand Baori (stepwell) was built around 900-1000AD. The kings used to climb down the symmetrical steps to take a bath and pray. This is one of the oldest step wells found in this region.
