    Yes there's tonnes of things with holes in them but every one I find seems too boring or easy. I want a challenge! I have a couple of ideas to execute on and I've already manufactured the subject for one of my ideas. Will be working on more shortly.

    Some square holes and a bit of 'help' from Jessica, well we wouldn't want the washing basket to float away.

    I think it is the sort of thing you throw your undies and socks in, so they come out nice and warm to wear on a cold day.

    Okay, so I am back in business again.

    So this months challenge. Holes. So I walked around the house looking for things with holes in them, and my line of thinking was different shaped holes to start with.

    I found round.........

    I found triangular.......

    I found horseshoe shaped.....

    Then I thought I would change my line of thought.

    Then I found this old fence post. I am sure that there is something living in the hole.

    nice and creative Gregory, i have thought of drilled holes in wood, but i hadn't thought of using a step drill on it, great effect, also looks a bit like the gun barrel view they used in some early james bond films.

    i have a certain constraint on my creativity this month.................

    I was actually planning a shot like this since I've got a load of off cuts from the central heating system I've just installed :S You've beat me to it!
