I had initially thought of doing the obvious thing and searching for things that are round to shoot for today’s theme. However, while I was at school this morning it occurred to me between pupils that there was a musical solution too. London’s Burning is a tune that is well known to virtually all British children – I would imagine most people will have sung or played it (often very badly on my favourite instrument, the recorder!) before they leave school. This type of tune is a round (sometimes also known as a canon) which can be sung round and round in several parts – in the case of London’s Burning, four parts. When I got home from school I quickly typeset a version of it on the computer and shot this on my music room windowsill using my 50mm lens under the watchful eye of our cat!

I've also thought of that but had no time, so just took a shot of the first round thing that came to my hand. =) Nellinka · 2010-02-10: 11:52
