So these people are sitting around all the bird poo, huh? Fun! (lol not really) I like the contrasty-ness of the other one better. The lines really pop out in that one. (Oh just noticed the title! Love it.)

heh! I thought this might be yours. And i meant to come back to it of course. Look at all those walkies wannabes. Working with parallel lines is definitely part of algebra 101. Oh well. At least you have a pretty picture to look at :D

oh crap. I was one of your 9s. If I'd given out ribbons for this challenge, you'd've gotten one! It's a toss-up between this one and that goofy Archimedes photo.

I love your description. I'd would not sniff any plugins or actions that Slippy gives you, however. This didn't come up for me in voting though I would have likely 5'd it. Not sure. Maybe there is just a lot else going on in the frame that draws me away from the parallel stairs as the subject. There's also a slight curvature to the upper level of the stairs that (for me) interferes with the impact of the straight lines.

I think this was a tough challenge to shoot for. A lot of folks did like yourself and shot architecture to convey the math used, or the geometric shapes.

Beautiful contrast and geometry. The biggest challenge producing images like this one (in my opinion) is the framing/crop. Rotating just a few degrees can make or break a shot like this. Obviously you framed this to excellent effect.

Double doors

Comment by bvy:
Great symmetry (though it "feels" slightly unlevel), and excellent display of color. The doors aren't really primary here, so probably good a choice not to have entered it.
