I especially like your 3rd entry, Sam. Symmetry-wise.

Thanks Bart, that's my favorite of the three as well. Symmetry-wise.

Love the mirrored look of your Swans also. as well as the last pic from Zippy. Some great pics throughout the thread.

Great entries, I love the variety and imagination. Still a few more days to go.

Wow this is getting awesome, so many great pictures!

I was browsing my flickr and found this, which is my #3. Pentax Q7 and Q 06 telephoto at 45mm, f/4.5, 1/125 sec ISO 100. Cropped really heavily (quarter in linear dimension) because 45mm was just too short and I didn't have anything longer.

Hey where's that fish? by k kwb, on Flickr

Big thank you to everyone that entered this month! it's great to keep this going so well with the constraints of current life. I loved the imagination of the entries!

The Winner is Sam I am for the 3rd photograph at the beach. I love the double symmetry in this, it really took the theme to a great level.

Honorable Mentions go to kwb for the 2nd photograph. Great interpretation of the theme, and I love the detail. Also to RoxnDox also for the beach photograph. I really liked the diagonal symmetry in this.

Thanks again, and on to April!

Cool ! Thanks a bunch. That picture was the last time my family was able to get together before the statewide lock down.

I will start the next one.

**kwb** · 04-02-2020, 11:03 AM

Congrats Sam_I_am, reflections, sand/water pattern as well as the people themselves were all fitting to the theme, and great atmosphere too!
Congrats RoxnDox (and me

) for honorable mentions! Thank you David for organizing this contest!

Bart · 04-03-2020, 05:52 AM

Congratulations to kwb, Jim and of course to Sam!

Thanks, David for your competition. Job well done!
Subjective of course, but I agree with your choice

Sam, I see the next one is up already.
I hope you don't mind I link it here.

OMG it's been so long since I've been here. Glad to see that all the familiar 'faces' are still here. I really like the subject and the photos and congrats to the winners. I'm a caretaker of an old lady (older than me anyway) and I've been so busy organizing things for her as I can't do them myself at this moment during corona time. So photographing wasn't on my mind the past month.

Bart · 04-16-2020, 05:56 AM

Glad to see you're OK, Titia!

I'm doing OK (knock on wood) I had to move to a different town due to eminent domain which kept me busy. I hope you're in good health during this difficult time!

Bart · 04-18-2020, 03:31 PM

Yes I am. Thanks.
We are careful and worked from home from the first day it was advised over here.
