I'm waiting to hear from MAK802 to discuss with her and if in agreement.

As suggested before, while the voting process is going on, if you see that you are in the
winner's circle - please make it a personal assignment to come up with the next theme rather
than to hold up things. I did my part; all threads are ready on the first of the month.

I'd vote for macro, or something that needs a little work to pull off, we need something challenging. Depth of Field, Rule of Thirds, SOMETHING.

I think a little explanation as to what is expected out of the photograph would help as well so that people who vote can benchmark the result against the criteria. I wasn't sure what the criteria was for Pets...was it how well the photo was taken or whether the pet was cute?

Az, not sure people really have the same interpretation of a macro so maybe you can elaborate if that ends up being the theme.

Isn't that technique not a theme although you could probably stipulate a theme using a particular technique?
