About Elegantly Minimal (post 1 ~ award 1)





This is a group for minimal photos. We know that the word "Elegantly" is in the group name, but it means photos that are elegantly MINIMAL, minimal being the operative word. The "elegant" before the "minimal" means that we are looking for photos that are so very minimal that they are elegant.

Please avoid photos that are "busy or cluttered...photos should contain only one or 2 shapes. Minimal color range also helps with the minimalism, but a colorful photo can be minimal if it is very basic in shape and form.

Minimal landscapes should be VERY minimal. A mountain range with a field of flowers in the foreground is NOT minimal. An ocean at night with only waves and beach, or a moon in a dark sky might be minimal if there are no other objects. Minimal flower photos abound, so to be included in the group they must be extremely minimal and original in composition (yes, we all love the daisy against a dark background, but we already have 35 of them in the pool).

Please do not post: portraits of people or pets, concerts or stage dramas, pornography or glamour photography, sports/action shots, or anything with added decoractive borders.

Please keep in mind that some subjects can become monotonous if the limit of 5 are submitted all at the same time. If you have 5 very similar subject photos it is better to to submit them one or 2 at a time, so that they will garner the attention they deserve in the pool.

OUR SIMPLE RULES:

This is not a dumping group. Photos that do not follow the theme will be deleted. Do NOT add too many photos that do NOT follow the theme.

A daily limit of 5 photos per day was set so people do not just posting photos that were not part of the group's theme.

The theme is for photos are photos displaying the theme of "Minimalism".

Photos not following the theme will be deleted. If your photo was deleted, DO NOT REPOST it to the pool!

Comment on as many as you post! Please do not dump and run.

Violations to our group rules may result in being kicked or banned “with no warning”!

You have the right to disagree about what you don’t like BUT if you disagree about how this group is managed please don’t join this group.

Be a little selective about the photos you post. They should be your best images following the theme of "Minimalism".

Please remember to remove a block on an Admin before you post here, too!

b) DO NOT move a picture back up to the first page of the group!

The above are NOT accepted behavior & you will be BANNED from the group.

Note: We look at each photo on an individual basis.

There is a daily posting limit of 5 photos. This is to avoid flooding the group with one person's photos.

In fact, if this happens, this group's administrators welcome you to post your photo here tomorrow!
