Mini Challenge #319 ~ Roofs

OK, we’re at challenge #319 and I can’t see that this topic has ever been used before and I’m I can't be the only one who takes these shots.


I want to see shots of Roofs; single roofs, multiple roofs, domes, spires, ornate roofs, simple roofs. Even a car roof if the shot is interesting ;) The roof doesn’t even have to be the reason the shot was taken as long as it is a prominent feature in the image.

There are some examples of what I am looking for in the next post.

You may use post processing to enhance your pictures; if you do please share the treatment you applied, (if, unlike me, you remember what you did!)

If you're familiar with extracting exif-data, let us know camera model, shutter-speeds, f-stops and ISO-numbers: others may be able learn from that!

The challenge begins now, and will end on Sunday, 9th October 2011 at 19:00 GMT

THE RULES


The host gives you a topic of interest and you get going.

You may enter up to three competition images.

The host chooses the winner after the challenge closes (usually after one week). The decision of the judge (the host) is final. The judge is not eligible. The winner then chooses the next topic, runs the challenge, judges the winner, and passes on the baton to that person.

If you submit a photo, please check in when the winners are posted. The first place winner is expected to host the next challenge. If the first place person cannot host, it moves to the 2nd place, etc.

Any picture you've taken is eligible regardless of time taken and camera.

Please reply to the FIRST (ORIGINAL) post if you are submitting an entry and please remember to change the Subject of your post to display your name or picture titles.
This way, when someone comments (i.e. replies), it will refer specifically to you. If all entries read "Re: Mini Challenge #319"... it would be very boring to scan the list.

Try to put your entries within a 'single' post.

Please give a title to each photo - this makes it easier to differentiate when giving comments.


Feel free to comment on other contestants' images. If you want someone to leave you a piece of constructive criticism, put an asterisk * next to the title of the image.

POSTING GUIDELINES

Please embed your image in the thread. Also please re-size your photos prior to posting so they're sized appropriately for viewing without having to scroll (approx. 800 pixels on the longest side works best.)

As a show of courtesy, and to save bandwidth, please remove the original post when replying, so you don't bring back any previous photos.

But I love your shot of the NY Botanical, what a fabulous angle and in such a nice time of the year. Nice to see different perspectives. And I didn't see Anjou :-((

Thanks Sue Anne. There was a mix of old & new roofs there, a result of the bombings during the 90's war in that region.

Millie,

Thank you, the NYBG is a wonderful place in the early spring. I liked your NY rooftops view with the famous water tanks.
