Photo Challenge #26 - Letters/numbers made from objects.

Seeing as there are 26 letters in the alphabet, I think this is an appropriate theme for challenge #26. :D

If I had the room for a bigger title for this week's challenge, it would've been...
Letters or numbers made from, or seen in, other objects or items that aren't letters or numbers themselves.

What do I mean by that?
This week's challenge is to look around you carefully and make/see a letter or number from/in another item that isn't already a letter or number. This means no photographing printed text, signs, etc.
For example, is that door cupboard handle just a handle, or the letter D or C? Is that a wheel, or the letter O or number 0? Could that wrought iron gate have a curvy S in it somewhere? Is there anything you can arrange to look like a letter/number? Could that string of sausages be made to look like an R? It's up to you!
Think about everything around you. What does it, or part of it look like. Can you do a tight crop to reveal the letter/number, or turn the picture sideways or even upside down? Look around the room you're sat in now. I'll bet you can already see half a dozen things that look like letters and numbers.
You'll have to use your eyes and imagination. This challenge will reward those who carry a camera, or camera phone with them everywhere. And reward those who can photograph their idea well, maybe including some other element/meaning to it. Just go out for a couple of hours wandering with the camera, and see what you can "see".
If your Letter/number is a bit abstract or hard to make out, it may be an idea to put the letter/number in your post title or in your post itself. Just to help a little.
This should be a fun challenge. So get out there, get looking, and get photographing! :hangloose

Vote.

My vote is for the13thduke. Very subtle. Almost too subtle, but like it. It's a very good, very clever photo.

Also liked Sinderella (my second fave pic), Flumpthecamper, VW Penguin, Anwyll, and Tarbo's pics. Sinderella, well observed, and Penguin - you and your mates posing in pics always makes me laugh, it looks like you're having so much fun.
