7. Voting ends at 12am Eastern (5am GMT) on the posted end date.
8. 8. Post your images in the appropriate thread in the form of an image, not a link to click on. To insert an image, use this code (for example):

9. Don't be a dummy and vote for your own photo, try and make it fun.
Be reminded that this is a photo contest and so images which have been heavily manipulated through an image editing software will not be accepted. To put everyone on a level playing field, editing should be restricted to cropping and resizing.
Images which are not relevant to the week's theme will be automatically removed.
If you have a problem with another contestant's entry adhering to the contest guidelines, please PM the forum moderators. Do not try to begin a debate about the issue within the contest submission or poll thread! There will be zero tolerance towards any attempts to devolve a contest thread into a bash-fest or witch hunt.

We will pick the next theme and post it the night a contest ends for the next round so people have a full 7 days to take pictures and submit them. After all the entries have been posted, a poll will be added on the last night, so people can vote. Voting will take place from midnight to midnight over the following 3 days (12am Sunday - 12am Wednesday).
Those who wish to participate in sharing full versions of their entries may do so by providing a link only to the full sized version in the same post as their entry.
Thank you and have fun!

A forest up the sunshine coast I took a walk through a few years back using my old Canon powershot. This is far from my best tree photo and the blue flare/tint is obviously not intentional but I like it as it reminds me of film for some reason. It's funny how your perspective changes; I really didn't think much of this shot at the time but was going through some old photos the other day and it caught my eye.

The place was pretty surreal! Like a tree graveyard. So much fun to photograph :)
 
Here is my totally made up forest of food!

I constructed this out of a verity of veggies and herbs and other edible goodness. The terrain was sculpted out of about 15 pounds of instant mashed potatoes.
