Many thanks to all who took part in this challenge - we have produced galleries containing fantastic images based on some very interesting interpretations of the theme.

Voting will close at about 22:00 (GMT) on Thursday, 15 December 2005.

Please also remember the theme when voting:

"...all about things moving through or lifted by the air ... not only things flying but also anything suspended or travelling in air ... e.g. insects, smoke, dust, water vapour, etc..."
