This month's POTM theme is:

"Natural Repetition"

What is it?
We have a natural tendency to seek order in our lives, so it's not surprising that we discern pattern in the built environment and in nature, which is particularly rich in examples - spiderwebs, leaf skeletons, tree branches and annual rings, rippling sand, water, are just a few examples from the many to be found.
Often patterns are not obvious from a normal viewpointbut reveal themselvesonly from a distance or closeup.The strongest patterns are usually made up of a single shaperepeated many times in a regular design. These patterns are often enhanced by the two-dimensional nature of photographs.

How long?
We're open for new photos till September 23.

Prize?
As for the last couple of months, the prize is $30.

Where?
You can upload your photos here (http://www.proudphotography.com/forum/gallery/browseimages.php?c=44&userid=).

This is the first one of these I've seen since I joined here and enrolled in the class so I have a couple of questions.

Can anyone enter?
How many times can one enter?
Any rules on file size or format?

Thanks,

Brian

Concerning the size: It's the same limit for your gallery. I believe it is 5.5 megs.
