Cool May-June Photo Challenge

MAY-JUNE PHOTO CHALLENGE
Essentially, a topic is chosen, and pictures can be taken based on that theme and any interpretation of it. Please keep it PG13.

Submitted photos will be posted, and at the end of the month, votes will be cast and a winner will be chosen.

The winner of the current month will then get to choose the theme for the following month.

This month's topic/theme is "A FAVOURITE PLACE", as chosen by shark.

- all entries must be submitted between May 1st and June 24th
- voting will run from June 25th to 29th
- please post all submissions in this thread only



Enjoy!


STANDARD RULES APPLY:
1) Pictures should be taken between May 1st and June 24th.
2) Maximum of 2 entries per person.
3) Each photo should be an original that has been taken by the individual entering the challenge.
4) Maximum width for each picture is 1000 pixels.

Well, it's the 20th and so far not one submission...

Since there appears to be some interest now, we've decided to make this a May-June challenge.
Hopefully, this will result in a few more photo submissions.
The new dates are posted in the original guideline post, so now we have until June 24th to take a picture of one of our favourite places.
Remember, you can submit up to two photos.

From the guidelines, if your photo was taken by you between May 1-June 24th, it qualifies! It's a good pic.
