DC Photography Contest #135

[hedy]

o O o Welcome to the Photography Contest! o O o

 

Here you submit photos you've taken and users vote on which photo they like the best.

 

Deadline: 21st of August  17th of August

This time the theme is: Circles

 

There's many things that create a kind of a circle, and any circle or circle pattern is accepted in this contest! Time to get creative!

 

Rules

- One entry per person.

- Picture has to be made by yourself and can't be just a reproduction of someone's work. If someone else's work is in the picture, there needs to be something extra.

- No manipulation besides basic photo adjustments (contrast, exposure, cropping, color balance, lighting, etc.).

- No text or framing in the photo. A signature/watermark is just fine, but it's preferable if you don't have "O Hai Eye Hav3 T3XT" (or something similar) present in the photo.

- When voting, please don't select your own image. This will ensure fairness.

- You are free to submit an old photo; you don't need to take a new one just for this competition.

- Winner hosts the next contest.

I found something in my album.

Btw, I think setting deadline two weeks as default is too long. It was one week at first.

Here is my entry

Yeah, I think that's a bit too long too. I'll move the date to 17th of August so you have one week from now to submit!

 

And deja, that'll definitely qualify! Anything with any kind of circle is acceptable for this theme!

[Alectrona]

I assumed the two weeks was so that anyone who wanted to had time to take a photo specifically for the contest, but I don't know how often people actually do that. Either way, I don't mind whether it's one week or two

 

I didn't think I had any pictures with circles, and then I remembered these circular lights!

Does this count?

Most bells are circular at the bottom, I reckon.

That's a bells monument that features bells from countries all over the world somewhere in or near Sofia, Bulgaria, which I visited with my friend a few years ago. Apparently it doesn't even have an English wikipedia page ...

 

Just for fun (this is not an entry photo): https://abload.de/img/img_0852j5j6k.png
