Additional rules: Only entrants who have won at least one photo challenge in Dpreview.com can enter. I might consider allowing entries from beginner participants with less than 30 entries, if their entry is on par with the rest of the field. The total entry limit is now set at 35, might slightly increase the limit if this challenge is well received. Do not submit shots used in previously completed DPReview.com challenges. No political statements please, any photos with the slightest hint of controversial statement or message will be removed without any notice. Shots I find offensive might be removed. Make sure the entries look good and tasteful (at least you must find your own shot tasteful). Complaints might not be entertained after the voting has started. The host's action (or inaction) is up to him Maximum number of entries per user: 1 Maximum number of entries in challenge: 65
