Our new topic is for photos of the Happy Snappers' abodes, wherever that might be, either permanent or temporary. Photos taken in kitchens will be allowed, but please do try and show something unique to your particular home/location/type of dwelling, and what it means to you. You can also enter photos of other people's places, with their permission, or other living things.
Water, water everywhere, this topic reflects the weather conditions in the country today, plenty of scope to let your imagination run free... The Judge has chosen this topic to include only freshwater water courses or body of water, inspired by a nature programme. If you have any water-dwelling life in your picture, so much the better.

Rocks (this can include rocks of any size, so includes particles as small as sand & as big as mountains)
The Judging results are in for Rocks.
1st - No.4, for it's unusual formation, the folds in the rock, and the contrast between the rough surface and the delicate plants.
2nd - No.3, again for the contrast between the rock itself and the plant with it's fruits.
3rd - No.5, which seems at first to be dominated by the bone in the centre, but the enlarged picture shows more rocks, good colour & texture.
Special merit to No.7's rugged peaks, again better in close-up; No.8 for a rock being put to good use; No.12 for capturing the unusual formation.
Well done to all competitors; this was a very close contest.
