Just got the e-mail from Wapiti. For the July contest he chose the topic of "youth."

Congrats again Wapiti!

Good luck everyone!

#1

Taken with EOS 40D at 400 ISO, 1/250, f/9, 95mm. Camera was in Program Mode with Auto ISO. It was a little overexposed in a few spots so I tweaked the levels and brightness a bit.

My oldest son with our dog a few weeks ago on a hot summer day.

#3, my youngest "catfishing". He thought that up all by himself.

el, please DO NOT include me in the voting; I'm not out to win anything, I just wanted to throw out a cute picture.

Voting is on!

FYI, I voted #10 because I felt the exposure and color were right on & IMO it best represents this month's subject.

I voted #7 as runner-up because (again) I felt the exposure and color were nailed (other than a bit of washed out sky)...and the DOF was great.

Congrats to ranchwife who is both the winner (#7) and the runner-up (#6) this month! Well done.
