A lot of really good submissions this time. Congratulations to the winners and those who came "oh so close". :)

I've got a suggestion for the secondary theme for September that could elicit some interesting submissions. How about, "Something You Don't See Very Often"?

does sound good

possible problemo though is what people consider rare or "something you dont see very often"

for example.... i dont see super cars very often. i dont live in a town dripping with money or people who are very extravogant.

but someone who lives in vancouver....supercars roam the streets there everyday.

so is it ok so long as what ever you shot is something that you personally dont see very often even for a fellow AT'er the subject in question might be a part of every day life?

any shot would technically be "OK", you just wouldn't get as many votes ;)

Thanks, blurredvision. I can't wait to see what kind of ideas ATer's come up with.

I wasn't thinking that the subject would necessarily have to be something rare, though that would be cool too, just something a little different from the ordinary. It could be something common shot from a creative perspective or it could be someone's cat standing on its head. It's pretty wide open. :)

So, is it official now? "Something you dont see very often?"

Thats gonna be an easy one. I'll just make my kids clean their room and take a picture of that? LOL
