The set subject for the August competition is Pets. The guideline for this set subject is:

A pet is an animal kept primarily for a person’s company, entertainment, or as an act of compassion such as taking in and protecting a hungry stray cat, rather than as a working animal, livestock or laboratory animal.  Two of the most popular pets are dogs and cats.  However, there are a range of other animals which are also kept as pets – rodents, birds, reptiles, fish, frogs and arthropods (insects, spiders and hermit crabs for example).  Ideally for this set subject there should be evidence of human companionship.

This, together with the Open & Field Day categories, should provide a challenge!  Note that there is a limit of 3 images in total per member per month.

Note the Maximum Image size that can be uploaded is 2000 pixels on the longest side, and a file size of 2000 kilobytes.  If your images do not meet these specifications they cannot be uploaded.  Name your files with the title of the image and please ensure you select the correct section for your uploaded images.
