Capture date rules:

Images must be shot after the announcement date of the challenge.

Additional rules:

Pictures must contain full EXIF data to verify the correct date of capture. Some software will strip EXIF data during the export stage, or if you 'save for the web' so check the relevant settings in your processing software.

Please participate in voting in the challenge, to counteract the negative, sandbag votes.
Entrants who cheat by altering the capture date will be banned from 'My Photo of the Week' challenges.
Entrants who cheat by sandbagging, vote manipulation, or with multiple DPR accounts will be banned from my challenges.
