I probably have something suitable I shot at the Isle of Wight, last weekend. I'll have a look.

Going to Holland for three weeks on the 11th though, so if I were to win, I will not be able to do the honours. In the unlikely event my shot is the winner, I hope the runner up will oblige.

A quick walk in the woods only netted me a couple of shots and went for this one

At last a 'stone' entry too!

Good number of entries for a 'short notice' competition.

Poll is up. Good number of entries this week for a late start!

I struggled a little with WillyP's entry since it is not in the gallery and was only an attachment to his post, but I think I have worked it out.  I was going to add it to the gallery myself, properly credited of course, but felt a little uneasy about this since it is not my own work. 

At any rate the PSA for this is for everyone to please upload your entry to the "Weekly Competition" gallery to make it easier for the poll setter to find your entry.  :)

Happy voting everyone and good luck to the participants.

Sorry, the gallery refused it. I've reduced it in size and uploaded it now:
