*** Acurazine Photo Contest #35: Circles ***

Acurazine Photo Contest #34

The theme for this contest is: "Circles"

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.

Important dates and poll info:

Entries must be submitted to this thread no later than Thursday, November 26th at 9PM EST

The poll will start on Friday, October 27th

The poll will close on Tuesday, December 1st at 9PM EST

I just posted this last night, and since I'm unlikely to shoot anything more circular in the next couple weeks, I guess this will be my entry:

VorteC - that shot is great! I really like the palette and the subtle spiral elements. Really cool. Do you have a flickr link for the photo? (not the direct link).

Thanks! It's the side of a house built by Virginia Tech for the Solar Decathlon. There's a link to the website of the house on the photo's flickr page (click the photo).
