RE: ᴀʀᴛ & ᴀʀᴛɪꜱᴛꜱ - Flower Contest | Week 8

No i am not sure who hosts it I just saw you commenting about the comments and im just letting you know that i think there might be a translation issue so you can make the competition clearer for others.

This is the meaning of illusion ( it’s basically a false sense of reality)
An erroneous perception of reality.
"Mirrors gave the illusion of spaciousness."
An erroneous concept or belief.
"The notion that money can buy happiness is an illusion."
The condition of being deceived by a false perception or belief.
"spent months flailing about in illusion."

I think a lot of ppl are entering with flowers as someone commented on one of my posts of flowers and asked me to share it on this page and join the competition. I imagine they did the same to a few ppl. I think this is also called a ‘flower contest’ no? You mean you also like paintings etc?

Personally, I am not such a flower fan but if it comes to this contests all creative art with the topic "flower" and this time illusion is welcome. So it can be a statue, something painted, a drawing, a building, a cake, a picture of a shadow, grafity, a sandsculpture and so on.

Who knows it's even more about creative thinking and taking a photo 🤔

I also believe that not many read since they are used to post the photos they take from flowers everywhere in the understanding all communities/contests are the same.

I am used to read, check posts and entries and I comment or ask what is meant. If the photographer can explain what the "illusion" part of the entry is - which I can miss/don't see - it's fine with me. Since we do not all see the same if it comes to art.

I’m not sure what you mean by illusion in this context. An illusion is something that is sort of fake / not real / false impression.

So you mean you want ppl to enter the flower competition with something that isn’t a flower like a slice of cake? and talk about it? I’m sorry I don’t quite understand.

Like a cake that looks like the shape of a flower or something for example? I’m just trying to understand what this competition is about.

Yes, that's what I think. Something that looks like a flower on the photo but in reality is something else... or the other way round. It is a flower but the photo suggests something else.

A great weekend!

That is called ‘Pareidolia’. When something looks like something else.

It’s a super cool concept for a contest I just don’t think it’s very clear from the write up hence a lot of ppl just sharing pictures.

:)

I read the competition through fully after you explained you would like to see writing and I still couldn’t get that you required any writing with the photo / art. I do genuinely think it’s simply a translation issue versus people not reading in this scenario.
