Thanks again to AvyMan for picking my picture as the last challenge winner.

This week’s mini-challenge will about natural symmetry. I want to see your best pictures with symmetry, but not by refelction using mirrors, glass, water, etc. I want to see natural symmetry. It doesn't have to be perfect symmetry, but close. It could be a picture of anything.

One or more examples will follow.

The challenge will end Tuesday January 27th at 5pm Eastern Standard Time.

Challenge Rules

The host gives you a topic and you post up to three images that fit. Any picture you have taken is eligible regardless of time taken or camera. Please post each picture as an individual post so people can elect to "like" them. I suppose to publish audience winner, if votes enough. The host chooses the winner, second and third places, and any number of honourable mentions, and posts those in a new thread. The host's decision is final. Remember, it's all about fun, sharing, and learning. The winner of this challenge then hosts the next challenge, judges the winner of that one, and so on it goes. The winner of this challenge will have 48 hours to post the next challenge. If that doesn't happen, 2nd place will have 24 hours to do so, then it's up to 3rd place.

Submission Posting Guidelines

Post each one of your three submissions in its own reply to this post. Give each post a unique subject please. It's best to embed an image in it's post rather than linking to somewhere else (you'll get more views that way). If you want people to give you constructive comments and criticism, ask for C&C. Feel free to post photos "for exhibition only" (or "EXB") if you want to share more than three or won't be available to host the next challenge, just let us know that in your posts. Size your images to no bigger than around 1,500 pixels wide or 1,000 pixels tall, so those with smaller monitors can see your image at full resolution. Use a reasonable amount of JPEG compression to limit the file size of your entries so we conserve bandwidth. You can do all the post-processing you want, but try to preserve the EXIF so we can see which camera, lens, and settings were used. If you know the EXIF won't come with the image, let us know that kind of stuff in the text of your post.

Comment Posting Guidelines

Feel free to post comments on the images. If you want to save bandwidth, remove the image from your reply so you just post text. If you like an image submitted by someone else, click on the green "Like?" thumb on the top right of the post, so we know which images were most popular. The host will make up their own mind which images best fit their topic without being influenced by that.

if its not being reflected, then it can count. its a great shot.
 
No reflection - but it has been edited/duplicated/rotated/inverted in software!
 
Then it doesn't count.
 
I knew that when I posted it! ;-)

I had a few more (non-perfect) "symmetry" shots than I initially thought. Good incentive to think about finding them.

This is a picture of my father and my son at the beginning of their military careers. I removed their name to protect their identities
