You are not really supposed to post them straight here, it spoils the excitement when Olivier puts the photos in the competition thread. It's best to either attach them in a message to wollastoni or Admin, or send them to wollastoni (Olivier) by e-mail. Adam. PS. Nice photo!

Yes but I have received very few pictures due to holidays.
Maybe we should cancel the August challenge to be fairer to people who are away during summer.

You may have to wait even longer, Tom may be somewhere in the Depths of the Congo. I'm heading down to Beni tomorrow(which is on the border of Virunga National Park) for the next 3 months, so you're fairly spot on. At any rate, I had already submitted my entry for the month of August, but if there weren't many other entries I'm fine with the deferral.
