Challenge 48: Geometry/Symmetry
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

From a very early age, we start to develop spacial awareness - the concept of distance, shape, pattern and form. The purpose of this challenge is to capture geometric shape and symmetry, whether natural or man-made. Thus depiction of points, lines, angles, surfaces and solids is permissible.

Symmetry is defined as exact correspondence of form and constituent configuration on opposite sides of a dividing line or plane or about a center or an axis.

Your photograph may include either geometry, or symmetry - or both (as the two are not mutually exclusive). Thus the centre of a sunflower is both symmetric and geometric.

Rules:

Besides the general rules, I have just one other rule: No contrived situations. The relationships should be as natural as possible and not created by you specifically for the challenge.

Please title your submissions. Having a snappy title helps a great deal!
