Welcome to CRPhotography's 52 week photography challenge! Every Saturday we will be announcing a new idea for you to photograph, and submit to us via comment on each announcement journal. This project aims to challenge you with new concepts and requirements that you may not normally face. This week's challenge is:

Exercises in composition: Take a photograph and crop it exactly square.


This is especially for you folks who do your serious photography in rectangles. I pack a square-shooter these days, but even when I was shooting rectangles I did a lot of square crops.

Here are some examples to get you started, all of them taken as rectangles then cropped.
