Given that Andy is off sunning it in the Isle of Man, I've stepped in to sort the poll out. We are using the same 'points scheme' we used in the last round (http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/showthread.php?t=342176&page=1&pp=30) as it proved so successfully and gave everyone who entered an idea on whether or not their shots were working. For those of you who don't know how it works, here we go.

1) Pick your favourite photos from the list of eligible photos below
2) You have a total of ten points to allocate amongst them
3) List your photos in along with the points you want to award each

1) Farmer1 – Typical
2) Farmer1 – To Hot To Handle
3) Farmer1 - Our Entertainment Wagon
4) Paulparler – Slip Sliding
5) Paulparler - Slip sliding away
6) Paulparler - Hit work
7) Scoobyk – The Lucky Throw
8) Scoobyk – Mid Air
9) Jaybird-UK – Feeding Ducks
10) BuRR – Quickstep
11) ScoobyDoo555 - Rhino at Bewdley Safari Park
12) mj – Does me

98) psolberg: my company car - 2 points
87) George_b: Weapons of Mass Destruction - 1 point

Post your vote below. The photos are here (http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/showthread.php?p=3584610#post3584610) and discussions are here (http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/showthread.php?p=3575749#post3575749). These competitions work best when people explain which photos they like and why and exchange ideas to help us all improve - so do please explain why you voted for a particular photo.

Voting opens now and closes at midnight on Saturday 7th August. Photo with the most points wins!

Good luck everyone :D

Edited to correct my self, voting closes at midnight SATURDAY 7th AUGUST :D
