Another lovely set of submissions folks!

JAS...nice example. I like the lines.
Quiet one...Those look like quite the big sunflowers. I like it.
Lion...welcome to the forum. I like your take on the subject; 3 concentric cirles of different colours and lighting. Very well done.
Iggy...really good example. I like it!
Yisehaq...again this is great with the shadow and light play. Looks cool in BW too. Is it a handle or part of something? Looks hand carved.
Bambi....Interesting catch you found here. good yeye. I especially love the play of the clouds and sky in the background. Offsets the metal very nicely.
Moin Moin. What a great reflection! You could almost turn this upside down and it would be hard to tell it was not the right way.

So many more great ideas... for sharing them!

I think i'm making this minialism too complicated. Trying to find the perfect picture before I take one and therefore hitting that mental block. I keep worrying that it isn't really mimimalism At that pace I wouldn't have anything to submit. Decided I'm getting something and here it is. A picture I took while walking through the park.

Hope this works as Minimalist
I kept the texture of the cement, I liked the contrast between that and the softness of the petals

Cool capture and excellent idea, Jude.

This is a photo of the supports of the old drugstore at 14th street which is now abandoned. The long lens compresses them and of course selects only a portion. Changed to pink in photoshop Elements.
