We're pleased to announce that the October Theme will be "Antlers and Horns." Post your images of animals with either antlers or horns. 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, keep posting your September Theme images of "Close Ups."

Rachel, Steve and Morkel
