Symmetry - the quality of being made up of exactly similar parts facing each other or around an axis.

This challenge begins when posted, and ends on Monday, December 28th at midnight GMT. Winner of this challenge will be announced shortly thereafter.

Challenge Rules:

1. Camera: Any DIGITAL CAMERA is allowed, not just DSLR.
2. Time: Any on-topic photo taken at any time is eligible, although photos that have won other competitions should NOT be entered.
3. Size: Please visit Image Posting Rules.
4. Post Processing: Do whatever you like and the host will decide if it works.
5. Posting: ONE PHOTO per photographer per challenge. List camera model & lens used. Post brief EXIF data: ISO, shutter speed and aperture.
6. Commenting: No commenting during challenge. When the posting is closed and a winner declared, comments can be made in this thread.
7. Keep it clean, and both Family and Work safe.
8. Have questions, PM me.
9. Have lots of FUN!

* THE WINNER ALWAYS SETS THE THEME FOR THE NEXT CHALLENGE, POSTS IT AND JUDGES IT - BE PREPARED!

Some impressive entries this time around. I am especially impressed with:

Zenmetry - dilorenzo1954 (Ed)
What a great shot! I did a doubletake thinking that this was Photoshopped (or a shot from The Exorcist) but then I realized that his arms are behind his back. Lots of depth from the lighting. Perfectly executed! <golf clap>

untitled - Ltdave
I like the spires reaching for the blue sky. Any chance that this is the Air Force Academy?

untitled - RDWP (Rob)
Great nature shot! How did you get the pigeons to pose for you?

I struggled a little to decide between Zenmetry and RDWP's untitled pigeon photo but then I realized that Zenmetry is a perfect example of great photography. Great model, posing, lighting, shot execution and a catchy title. Congrats Ed, you've done it again! Rob was a very close second.

Thanks to all for participating and have a Happy New Year (its got to be better than 2020, right?). Oh, and happy birthday to me. :oops:

Roger (64 I think)

Thank you Roger and happy birthday!
Congrats to Rob also.
I'll have a new challenge this evening, after work (last week of work, the life of leisure, or cat food...I'm retiring!)

Congratulations on your retirement. It's a great 'job.' You should enjoy it. :-))

Thanks Roger and congrats to Ed - and all the other submitters. Good images. Ed - tried this pose. I can almost get the tips of my fingers to touch ...

Best of the season to all and a Happy (and Better) New Year, too!
