I was reading the latest flickr blog post the other day about squared circles, or “squircles”, & thought it sounded like fun – so I decided to try it out for myself. I took all these photos with my iPhone, using the ShakeItPhoto app, on my walk to & during lunch today.

They even have a Flickr group dedicated to squircles & I found that it’s actually harder than you might think to capture a photograph (using only an iPhone & with no editing in my case) that is of equal height & width containing a circle & in which the circle fills as much of the frame as possible with its outside edge remaining visible, etc.; in fact, I don’t believe that my photos here would even qualify for this flickr group as they do have a border (because I used the ShakeItPhoto app). Oh well, it was fun anyhow!
