My two worlds are colliding as I stare at this photo of a bug-chewed leaf. The graphic designer in me is enamored with the pattern of organic white-ringed shapes and the veins that connect them. Meanwhile my photographer’s eye is studying the depth of field, contrast and saturated colors. In fact, photography and graphic design are intertwined in many ways. The same elements that I studied as a college design student can be applied to photography as well. Balance, contrast and movement are important for any form of visual art and the lines between artistic mediums can often be blurred.
Today, please share your photos with distinctly graphic qualities and stand back as I am blown away with visual stimulation.
I really really get this. Pea tendrils. They get me every time with their predictable unpredictability.

This is my love in photography. Finding patterns. As a former math and science teacher, I am drawn to Fibonacci Sequences and appreciating form and function in nature. Ok, tomorrow I am heading to a pumpkin patch and now I have a new goal!!
Oh, yes! Food tends to be a bit delayed when I'm cooking, since I frequently run for my camera to document colours and patterns like in this onion:

I've always thought that 'design' – whether photographic or simply graphic are inseperable. This image – the horizontal layering:

And this – the study of shape and form:

thank you, paige, you have truly inspired me today…:-))
i have been taking photographs of a piece of discarded paper that has been lying in the grass alongside the water
it is a kind of waxy paper, like butchers use to put their meat in, and it has been lying there in a crumpled heap, slowly decaying, changing color, getting thinner and dirtier, but always amazing me with its wonderful shape and folds and shadows and layers of color
i have finally gathered all the shots i've taken together and put them in a set on flickr today, thanks to your post….!!!

I love a good log pile for an interesting graphical photo… http://www.flickr.com/photos/angies/4651984023 (plus they smell nice).
Loved these cobblestones. . .

I always thought this black and white mushroom shot looked quite graphic…

I've always been enamored with design – whether handcrafted, computerized or from nature. Today is one of those nature days. They are full, deep, textured, linear, squiggly.

i went back to see if the piece of paper was still there and took some more photos
i love looking at all the thumbnails together, it looks like a cut up abstract painting….

I really liked this when I was going for a walk one evening. I took a few unfocused shots and this reminded me of a painting:
