This got me thinking about the nuances between circles and rounds. I try to be as accurate as I can when I participate in challenges 😂, as if it really matters that much in the grand scheme of things. Yet, there’s something strangely satisfying about getting it right. So, I thought I would take some time to refresh and confirm my knowledge on the topic.
The differences between circles and rounds are primarily based on their definitions and geometrical properties. A circle is a two-dimensional shape defined as the set of all points in a plane that are equidistant from a fixed point known as the center. In contrast, the term “round” refers to the general quality of being circular or spherical, which can apply to various shapes and objects, not limited to geometric circles. Moreover, while a circle has a precise mathematical definition with specific formulas for its area and circumference, “round” can be more subjective, describing items that appear curved or circular without adhering to strict geometric rules.

Uh, oh! I had not even considered the difference between the two. Just realized my entry is wrong!. Your circles are wonderful. I especially enjoyed the kitty reflection in the mirror. 😊
Thanks, that is my favorite too 😀 Rounds look nice too 😀
A useful exposition, and some great shots here. I love that first one.
Interesting post Ritva. The performer is gorgeous (I just love that light), and the same go for the rings. Are rings different then circles or rounds? Ah well, that is for another day.
The Artic Circle sign was a nice touch as well.
