Definitely looks like the side view of a face to me, although the background is a bit distracting.

Worth another visit, if possible.

Congratulations to JudithAnn for the winning entry and many thanks to Darlene for my joint 3rd Place and the competition.

It was certainly a challenging task and having spotted a face in the soup, I decided that would be my entry, rather than go mad over the next ten days looking for more examples

Unless he's sold it already.
Peter,

I did think about buying your SMC 500 but decided that I might as well stick one of my manual converters onto my DA*300

I think for reflection type shots, one of the key issues is to have something worth reflecting.

So in image No. 1, leaving aside any debate about composition, the ideal would be a really nice classic car reflected in the bonnet, rather than some camper vans.

Keeping oneself out of the shot is an ever present problem also

I was thinking more along the lines of an FA* 600

The colour one for me, but I would increase the contrast a bit and the saturation + maybe a spot of rotation to increase the angle closer to 45 degrees.

Just a few bolts / nuts, some rust and some mussels for me

That is perfect.

This happens regularly when a judge hits return and ends up with rnrrn.

Have you managed to cure it for just Anvh's competition or all future comps. :
