Project 27: Real & Implied Circles

The aim of this project was, along the lines of the previous projects, produce 4 photos organised around circles. Attempt an implied circle if possible!

Photo 1: Another bike shot from Amsterdam. These bikes were parked on angled metal which raised them off the ground. In the background is an circular Art Deco style entrance to a building which reinforces the circles.
43mm, f/3.2, 1/400s, ISO 400

Photo 2: Edinburgh light post/railing/clocktower. I have two versions of this shot, the first from further back which includes all the elements, including the rounded top of the light, but the circular railings are not as strong. The second is a closeup of the railings with the clock in the background out-of-focus. I slightly prefer the first version.
52mm, f/6.7, 1/500s, ISO 200

70mm, f/11, 1/180s, ISO 200

Photo 3: Another cycle shot, this time in a bit of a different context, mounted on the wall of a pub!
50mm, f/4, 1/750s, ISO 400

Photo 4: An attempt at an implied circle, this time on the Isle of Arran at the amazing collection of standing stones (similar age to Stonehedge, far fewer tourists visiting!!. Despite my low angle, a circle is implied here. Note the water on my lens adds some softness to the hills behind but was not intentional!

30mm, f/5.6, 1/180s, ISO 100
