In just a few days (October 21) is national Count Your Buttons day.
In honor of this inane holiday, the challenge will be buttons!

We see and use buttons every day - Not just on clothing, but also on our electronics, appliances, devices, front doors, elevators, etc. So let's see your creative button shots!


This challenge begins when posted and ends on Monday, 25 October at midnight GMT. Winner of this challenge will be announced shortly thereafter.

The Challenge Rules:

2. Time: Any on-topic photo taken at any time is eligible, although photos that have won other competitions should NOT be entered.

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.

Challenge over! I was hoping that the ubiquitous nature of the theme would have brought out a lot more entries.

In any event, we had some really great submissions! All are excellent in their own ways and great job to all!

In the end, I have to award OldCrow the win. I'm a sucker for closeup shots with a lot of detail and this shot certainly provided a variety of color, detail and texture.

Congrats to OldCrow as well as to the rest for your great entries and a warm welcome to POTN to TerryPink!

I found it a rather unique theme, and I liked it. New to this forum and busy this week, so I only had the one idea. To photo & post my favorite buttons. those worn-out, overused buttons on my retiring Fuji bridge camera. It has served me very well for about 10 yrs. RIP Fuji, I will honor it on Dia de Muertas.

Per the rules, it does not have to be a current image. If you have an older image that fits the theme of the challenge, you can enter it!
