      1st.......Foxglove Fence....ryland.j.....Something a bit different, but it works for me. Has a 'rustic' summer feel to it.

      2nd......Summer Dragon....Stongylodon....Good sharp shot of an unusual insect.

      3rd......Lovers in the Mist....Roders....Nice close up of two summer favourites.
