This contest has become a contest again.
Please read the amended RULES sticky.
The biggest change is NO comment posts in the Submission thread, please post those in the 'comments' thread.
also please only post one photo per month, make it a good one !
The only prize is bragging rights.
I am the lone judge, I will pick one and only one monthly winner.
Since we are returning this to a contest...kinda of a 'restart' if you will, I am choosing a subject suitable for any caster.
=========================
June 2014 Photo topic: a single cast boolit
Better choose a good boolit (it can be a recovered boolit), make sure you get the lighting right, and keep in mind the composition (composition is everything else in the photo).

Obviously, as the lone judge, I'll never choose my own photo.
This is actually one I submitted back in 2010, So it's more of a cameo (I use that word loosely as it wasn't a winner back them) and yeah, it's not really a single cast boolit and the background is on the random artsy side :-P

Okay, so it is actually two boolits... 570 grains 12 gauge Brenneke-style slugs for smooth-bore shotgun.
