The theme for this contest is: "Symbols"

Any interpretation of the theme is good.
HDR *IS NOT* allowed.

The rules for this contest are as follows:

-The subject can be anything you deem acceptable that fits the description.
-You must be the person that took the photos. Previous photos are acceptable as long as you are the one that captured the image.
-One submission per contest.
-Images must be no larger than 1024px in any direction. Links to larger images are allowed but you must have one that is under 1024px for the poll.
-All contestants must host their own pictures.
-All pictures must have a title.
-While post processing in Photoshop is allowed, adding or removing parts of the picture is not. In the event a photo is suspected to be "photo-chopped," the contestant will be asked to provide the original picture.

Entries must be submitted to this thread no later than Tuesday, October 27th at 9PM EST

The poll will start on Wednesday, October 28th

The poll will close on Sunday, November 1st at 9PM EST
