Broken for me too.

Congratulations to @Steve Hyde who won with this great umbrella failure shot. . . . . See? It's always worth shooting the weather. In second place, just one vote behind Steve was @Doc with his wilting candle. Thanks to all for the entries and for voting. Over to you Steve for the November Challenge.

It's another neck-and-neck race!

Inspired by this month's challenge, "impotent candle"... . . .

Not an easy shortlist to compile either. Plenty of great shots had to be excluded. @Phil Crean has the right attitude although his claims of winning are a bit grandiose as he very nearly made the shortlist...

Thanks for your entries - if only I could have had a shortlist of 18 rather than 8! Here are my choices, for better or worse. BrasilNut - Affluence fail Simon Evans - Long-distance runner physiology fail Steve Hyde - Green umbrella fail Abiyoyo - Havana car fail Funkyworm - England field hockey defence fail Sally - White van man reading comprehension fail Doc - Red candle fail Keith Douglas - Rowing fail

We are now closed to entries. Thanks to all who've submitted. I'll put a poll up with my shortlist in the next few days.

Last day today, folks. Any more entries to be posted by midnight tonight GMT.

Fake news. Sad.

One week left! Thanks to all who've entered so far. I can see I'll have my work cut out whittling down the shortlist.

You're welcome.

There's a reasonable art/fine art photography market in the US. Plus he's involved with Lollipop magazine.

There's a piece on this guy - Joshua Paul. Shoots modern Formula 1 with a 1913 Graflex. Wonderful stuff.
