We're off to Lanzarote in 2 weeks so it seemed a good topic. That's HOLIDAY not Lanzarote.
Anything holiday related - from case locks to holiday essentials. From Passports to an old boarding card or memento.
I hope you all enjoy getting me in the holiday mood for 7 days relaxation.

So fasten your seat belts, tray tables up, window blinds open and lets go.....

The Rules are:

1. The challenge is just for fun.
2. All images must be taken after the theme is announced.
3. The challenge runs from 8pm on the Sunday and runs until 8pm the following Sunday.
4. Only one upload per member.
5. Please feel free to comment on the entries once judging is complete.
6. The person who hosts is the judge for that week challenge and the judge’s decision is final.
7. The winner gets to create, run and judge the challenge for the following week.
8. Have fun
9. Sorry does not include access to our trip,

My apologies, but I will not be participating this week, nor next week - that includes the b&w challenge as well. Am up to my (eye)balls in decorating which has to be finished before going on holiday later this week and have no time to get creative...
The next challenge for me will probably be the macro one starting Sun. 26th.
See y'all on the other side...play nicely while I'm away...Smile

In this instance as the absence of an entry is due to 'holiday' could that absence actual be an entry around 'Negative Space Holiday' - or am I drinking to much.

I've got decorating to start when we get back from Lanzarote later this month so hope it all goes well for you and enjoy the trip afterwards.

I'll also be absent from the challenges 22nd to month end.

There you go then - mine's in.
Decided to go with the 'holiday snap' look - something a bit different this week.

Happy holidays everyone (or decorating, as the case may be). Wink

Well with a little over 90mins to go there are a few in, any additional entries welcome until 8pm.

After a day enjoying the sun in the garden, with a break to watch the Grand Prix, I may just have to relax with some vino to study the submissions.

Well that's it Ladies and Gentlemen, I have just been told Mrs D is ready to assist in the judging process.
So once I've been told who the lucky Tog is this week I'll get back to you all... TongueWink

We've narrowed it down to two.

Linda's still life - nice DoF and all holiday essentials and a jaunty angle (usually the angle I walk back to the hotel each evening).
Eddies Locks - The detail on the locks is great and everything is ready to board. Eddie even picked cases that share a name with an early passenger plane (Lockheed Constellation).

But in the words of Connor McLoud - 'There can be only one'............

So for this week the honours go to - Linda .

Thanks to every one for taking part and humouring my challenge topic, it was a tough choice (that's choosing the winner not the topic).

Ooh! Unexpected surprise - thanks Dave.

Great range of pics there but I have to say a special congratulations to Eddie too for 'bagging' the much prized second place - nicely sidestepped there! 😉

Back later tonight or maybe tomorrow morning with a new challenge. And bon voyage to those of us who are lucky enough to be jet-setting off to far-flung places on their own holidays - not in the least bit jealous! 😅😂🤣

Congratulations Linda
A great final 2 Dave I would have struggled to separate them as well.
Nice subject put me in the holiday mood but I have a few weeks to wait.
