Weekly Photo Contest: 11th to 18th January 2018 - Low Down

For this weeks competition, I'd like you to to get right down, get your stomachs or knees dirty and show us some shots from a low perspective.

A couple of examples, although obviously you can choose your own subjects and get even lower if the fancy takes you:-

The usual rules apply:

. Be Nice To The Judge and Make it Easy for him

· The photographs must be your own work.

· Be creative and have fun.

· You may only submit one photo per contest.

· Please do not comment on photos until after the judging has taken place.

· The contest runs for a week and starts now!

· At the end of the week, The Judge (last week's Winner) will choose a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place photo, providing as much feedback as possible.

· If the Judge is unable to complete the selection within 48 hours of the deadline for close, then a vote will be carried out to select a winner. This will be based on the number of "likes" each image has. In the event of a draw, the second place winner from the previous week will choose the tiebreaker.

· The 1st place Winner will start a new thread with the topic/theme of their choice, and act as the Judge for that contest. (Winner has 48 hours to create new theme, after that it defers to 2nd place).

· Please update the Contest Master List when you post a new contest
