Here are the entries from round two of our photo competition. This time the subject matter was open, but all photos must have been taken in the past nine days while we were on vacation.

Voting will be the same as the last round: on a scale from one to ten for each picture.

This time, however, anyone who is interested is welcome to vote towards the final scores. When voting, please add it as a comment to the bottom of the picture series (click the little pencil icon).

Also, please identify the photo by number beginning with number one at the top, and leave your name and mark out of ten for each image. Any insights, critiques, or other feedback is most appreciated.

Voting will be tallied at midnight, local time, on Saturday night (12 August).

Thanks for taking part.

Also, we are looking for people who would be interested in joining the photo competition for future rounds. Anyone interested please contact us. With any luck we'll be able to make this into an international collection of artists. Your thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated. Everyone is welcome!
