Ahoy,

I've decided that months theme is Diagonals. Mainly as i'm interested to see what patterns/compositions people have with these
in their photo's

This is the Entries thread, no chat just your pictures please.

Monthly Photography Competition Rules:

The photos taken must be your own work
The competition will run from the first to the last day of the month.
The winner from the previous month decides on the topic for following month and judges it at the end of the month
There will be two threads that need starting: The Entries thread to commence same time as Discussion thread. In the Entries thread only one picture should be entered. # Any others you wish to discuss should be posted in the Discussion thread.
All entrants acknowledge that they may indeed win and that their adherence to convention ensures everyone else's continued fun.
Photos entered should be no bigger than 750 pixels wide for a landscape photo and 600 pixels high for a portrait photo due to the PH squash factor. Links to larger versions are permissible.
Good luck!

Mods - Can you sticky this thread and the discussion thread please!

Apologies for the late reply ( and thanks to Dogsey for the reminder that i still had to judge this)

After a bit of thought these are the results!

This one caught my eye due as there is a lot of simple lines going on here hidden in what looks like a complex image.
would probably look quite good in black and white as well!

Great processing and the pattern under the bridge is brilliant, was hard to choose between this one and the winner.

Love the way the pattern and framing pulls your eyes towards the window at the end, has a bit of a movie like feel to it.
great work!

Congratulations to Londonagent! good luck picking another topic, and hopefully your more organised at this than me!

I tried it in Black and White and I have to say I like it. So much so it was sent to the plotter this morning (although I don't believe it's printer proper blacks) as it's got a browny/pink cast across it.

Ah well - it covers up more of the bland walls..
