Hi All

Theme - Shape(s)

Rules..
  • Images must be taken in the month of the theme and posted here before the end of the month.
  • Images taken at the Nifty Fifty focal length on full frame or the equivalent focal length on crop bodies, ie. Canon 1.6 crop body plus 35 prime or 30mm on zoom etc.
  • No lens modifiers, this is about the purity of the Nifty Fifty FL and being close to the human eye.
  • Tiny crop to straighten allowed, try to keep the image as close to what the lens would see.
  • Cropping to new ratio, ie 16:9, is allowed, but please keep to full width and as a last resort, it is about the purity of the view from the lens above all else.
  • The theme will be posted on the first of each month, in the title bar of the image thread.
  • Shoehorns, even Lube and Crowbars are allowed to squeeze into the theme ;)
  • A poll will be added at the end of the month, (just for fun, no records will be kept).
  • Please list gear used.
  • Open to all, no sign up required.
  • One entry only please.
Images only - Chat link here.

I'm a bit addicted to the 33mm (on apsc) at the moment, so I'll throw one in.
Fuji 33mm, f1.4, 1/125, 800iso. Cropped to 7x5, just a sliver of each short side. I always do this, I'd set my camera to it if I could... but if it's naughty for the purposes of the challenge I'll stop.

Unless I'm being a bit thick (which has been known to happen on occasion) the poll only lets me vote for one image.

You should be able to tick 3 boxes on the left, then hit cast vote button.
 
Select a second deselects the first. Maybe it's my phone, I'll try again when I get to a computer.

I just checked using my phone, it allows more than one, it highlights the vote you've just selected but 'greys out' after selecting the next, but remains selected as a vote.
Hope you manage to sort it (y)

Job done, thanks! It was a winning combination of idiocy and the wrong glasses!
 
Fairly even votes across the table, good to see.
Well done all :)
 
Well deserved, Toni (y)
 
Superb Image!
