Weekly Challenge #427 - Geometric Shapes
Posted By: atupdate, 07-19-2018, 05:03 PM

Welcome to Weekly Challenge #427 - Geometric Shapes.

I'm looking for photos where a geometric shape is important to the photo. Shapes like circles, stars, squares,and others should be the main subject or a prominent part of the main subject.

Every week, a new theme is picked and judged by the winner of the previous week or, in case the winner is unable to run the next chalenge, the second place holder.

This challenge will run until next Thursday (July 26th) at midnight EDST.

Rules
1. Post ONE photo (max 1024x1024).
2. The photo must portray an interpretation of the theme.
3. Post your single picture in this thread and explain what motivated you to take the picture and/or how you feel it represents the weekly theme (especially if it's not obvious).
4. The challenge is interactive. Any response is welcome.
5. The judge will pick the WINNERS and choose one of them to be the judge for the next week.
6. This challenge runs for 7 days plus an additional day for the judge to choose the winners.
7. Any Pentax camera can be used.
8. Pictures can be from any time frame, not just within the week of the current theme.
9. In case the winner of a challenge is unable to become the judge for the next challenge, they will PM the #2 winner for that person to be the judge.

Examples:

Oval


Triangle


Pentagon and Others


Good luck to everyone.

Tim

Arch

This is the roof of a fountain in my capital city shot with a K50. I was just curious how would it look like from exactly the center.

Lots of shapes, right?

Had a chance to snap a few pictures before a gust of wind blew it away.
