\"beach\"<\/a>I know, I know! It\u2019s far too long since the last photo challenge and my inbox has been filling up with question like, \u201cWhat\u2019s the topic for the next photo challenge?\u201d and \u201cWhen will the next photo challenge be starting?\u201d Well the good news is it starts right now, the bad news is you have less then two weeks to get your entry in.<\/p>\n

For the August photo challenge your theme is\u2026<\/p>\n

Beach or Sea<\/strong><\/a><\/font><\/p>\n

How you decide to interpret that theme is entirely up to you. Perhaps you\u2019ll want to take it literally and enter a photo of a some pebbles, a sand castle or people enjoying being at the coast. Maybe you\u2019ll try something a little more abstract like looking for sand patterns or a long exposure to smooth out the waves.<\/p>\n

Once you\u2019ve made your photo you\u2019ll then need to do three things\u2026<\/p>\n

1. Check your entry meets with the rules at the bottom of this post.
2. Upload your image to the Flickr Group page at http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/groups\/2025164@N25\/<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n
