Not on theme. IMO these are not pyramids. They are just sharpened stakes that have had the ends cut off.

The fact that the ends are cut off makes them 4 sided, not triangular. I'm with you, meatman.
And even if the ends were not cut off, the base's would be round. lol. a no-win situation
meatman you would do well to read rule 3.7
This is a mods decision.
You already made your point with your first comment.
pyramids do have 4 sides btw
Pyramids can have an infinite number of sides. And one of of the sides is the bottom. It is not the polygon that is created by cutting off the top. At least that is what 2 1/2 years of geometric topography at Ohio State taught me.
what ever then red flag this entry and move on according to the dang rules.
Good luck to you Author.
The polygon exists .. just you do not see it, because it is joined to the log There is a point, an ideal section where the pyramid begins. Otherwise, what words would you use to describe the shape of these logs? I say .. think differently ...
I would add, have you ever seen the unfinished obelisk in Aswan ??.. You can not see one of its sides, but everyone calls him obelisk ..
Please look at the tip in the picture "Close to houses"
It is certainly a pyramid and its tip is cut off ..
What I mean is that if you accept that the pyramid of Giza is truncated and its faces are not perfectly flat, but they are built in terraces, then it makes sense also my pyramid shapes are truncated at the top (like the Mayan pyramids). What really matter is that the lines of the triangles converge towards an ideal point.
As for the base, the pyramid of the Louvre is really empty .. so even in this case the polygon is an optical illusion, because it is immaterial ..But if we mean by the word pyramid not the triangle shape, but the overlap of multiple items, then you are right,
these are not pyramids.. In any case thanks for the comments.
This is the first time that my photo is being discussed across the world for so long .. and this is an interesting experience
Very creative idea author! tough crowd ut i think id call these pyramids but that's just me

Did you give this an HDR effect? It shows a weird "halo" effect above the bridge and on the side of the center support which really detracts from the "shades of gray" effect by giving it a very artificial look.
agree with MossyB

This is a great photo. It would have been awesome to see the hammer focused. I really like the black and white and face. Shows the subject is focused but content with his trade.
Light was pretty dim, but I quite like the movement of the hand and hammer.

Pretty cool shot here. Nice author
Thanks MnMCarta. "Norwegian Wood" was a song which was quite out of character for The Beatles and was and is one of my favorite Beatles songs. And here's the cute opening lines..."I once had a girl, or should I say, she once had me...She showed me her room, isn't it good, Norwegian wood?"
love that song. Nice shot and good take on theme.
Thanks cabldawg71 (hope I spelled your name right)
Nice find - one of my fave Beatle songs too
Thanks FallingHorse. I always feel like having a glass of fine wine whenever I hear the song.....Cheers for the New Year Everyone !!!!!!
