Hi All:

Unfortunately the May Theme of "Animal Antics" did not prove to be a popular theme with only 3 eligible images posted, So in a three-way tie for bragging rights this month are:

Loi Nguyen, "Under Siege" - http://www.birdphotographers.net/for...07-Under-Siege

Andre Pretorius, "Not a Care in the World" - http://www.birdphotographers.net/for...e-in-the-World and

Marc Mol, "Mum - Help!"- http://www.birdphotographers.net/for...THEME-Mum-help!

Congrats to Loi, Andre and Marc!

We're also happy to announce that the July Theme will be "Water." Eligible images must include animals and water in any form - ocean, river, pond, waterhole, puddle, rain, snow, ice, etc. The animal can be in the water or the water can be a compositional element. Forum rules still apply. As always, please use the "Theme" prefix from the dropdown menu. Theme images will be critiqued just like other images and are eligible for IOTW honors.

In the meantime, we hope that the June Theme of B&W/Toned Images proves more popular again.

Rachel, Steve and Morkel
