Entry period will be from Sunday to Sunday, with this week closing on the 29th September.
Only two categories; Portrait and Landscape
Portrait- Anything with eyes, people, animals
Landscape- Country, town, city, sea, abstract, things (water drops, smoke, flowers, candles and so on)
Each category will have a winner each week and this week judged hopefully by David Eccleston, I love his puppy action shots are superb.
Then a poll to sort out monthly winners.
Please supply a title for your image and what category you are entering in. Enter as many times as like, old or new images.
Start posting your new shots here.

As the judge, I don't think I can enter, but here's a portrait of Zuni anyway, just for Steve.

Category : Landscape
Title : Fly me to the moon.
Shot with a 18-200mm Lens (not great at 200mm). The image is a really small crop of the whole, that's the only way i could get the moon to look bigger than a white dot. Shot using the sunny 16 rule.

Alright, my selections are:
Portrait: Joel for his kitty. Beautiful image of a beautiful creature, nice and sharp with good separation from the distracting background.
Landscape: qwRad for his lightning. It may have been luck, but it's a fantastic shot.
Honorable mention to Wally (bouwy) for his grandson. A nice sharp portrait indoors, which can be tricky.
