    @skullfunkerry nice hangar photo. 

    I was also torn with this one, probably because the theme has so many possibilities. 

    This was my other option for entry.

    Nice work! I think you've gone with the right one there, but there's not much in it, they're both crackers.
    Too much gain... is just about enough \m/

    Same here! I think it might be a toadstool or mushroom, but I'm not sure...

    I like it , its interesting to look at and captures the imagination, IMO thats what photography is all about, If a photo stops you scrolling and gets you thinking then it works for me.

    Does anyone else see the pirate with arms spread downwards holding two swords , standing with his back to us and his head drooped down? Or is it just me?

    I hope not, that would be a very unseaworthy vessel if they were.

    Such an open subject this month – and amazing entries, but I have gone for something less about technique and more about sentiment. My father passed away recently, so inevitably I have been going through some stuff. This is a photo I have taken of a black and white photo of me and him, probably around 1968 when the circus came to town.

    He’s doing his best beatnik impersonation and I am trying not to look to daunted by cuddling a live lioncub. You can see I was already thinking about how to hold a guitar !

     @Jonathangus ;is your entry an infra red photo?
    It does look like it, doesn't it?  No, it's just a pic of a tree which looked quite nondescript until I started playing with the various monochrome filters on my phone.

    I’m off on holibobs today and probably won’t have much of a signal for interwebby things for the next two weeks. 

    Can I send votes via PM @skullfunkerry for you to drop in the thread on my behalf?

    Obvs makes it difficult if there are any late entries I guess ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ that’s the only issue I can foresee.

    Yes that's fine mate. Looking at the entries I think most of the usual suspects have entered already so you should be okay (famous last words, ha!) :)

    Ok, but the ship sails in about an hour. I’ll message with my prelim vote and if there’s any change I’ll do my best to message skullfunkerry with an update.

    Well, by not caving in to pressure I've decided to forgo a potential vote – I'm not quite ready to enter yet. As you were @Haych . Enjoy your holiday!

  • Really tough to vote this month, it had to come down to tiny little things in the end.

    I have to ask - @westford - what is that in your photo? Is it a spider's web with raindrops?
