Daily UI 005 - App Icon

For day 5 of the Daily UI Challenge, I was tasked with creating an app icon. I began by researching app icons to determine the level of simplicity as well as detail that are usually used in app icons. I found that many use fairly simple vector graphics as well as sticking to 2-3 colors. I then wanted to think up an idea for an app that I personally would find useful. Because I love to go camping, I thought it would be cool to create an icon for an app which would allow users to find, reserve and pay for campsites. The icon features a vector illustration of a tent on a hilltop with a nighttime gradient sky in the background, as well as a few interspersed stars.
