An excellent idea from Lynn to improve your photo skills.

Symmetry is all about balanced proportions. Although there are several different types of symmetry, in photography the most common method of achieving symmetry is by creating an image which can be divided into two equal parts which are mirror images of each other. The line that splits a symmetrical object is called the Line of Symmetry. Symmetry can be either vertical (left and right halves being symmetrical) or horizontal (top and bottom halves being symmetrical).
AS USUAL, THE RULES REQUIRE FRESH PHOTOS ONLY. PLEASE VISIT AND COMMENT ON THE OTHER CHALLENGER'S ENTRIES... AND HAVE FUN CONNECTING WITH EACH OTHER

Come and participate, it is great fun to do.

I like the contrast between the wood and the pot plants, but was not standing diagonal to them while taking this photo

Hopefully more people will join in the Challenge!

The bus reflected itself on the pathway, had to take it a bit side ways to get the whole effects

Symmetry in everyday language refers to a sense of harmonious and beautiful proportion and balance.

Once you are focused on a subject you see it everywhere
