Ok, I'd been in 2 minds as to what to set for the next topic. With it being Remembrance Sunday in just under 2 weeks, I had toyed with setting that as a subject, but the timeline would be a bit tight, so have gone for the fallback of "Shoes", mainly because I can actually put up a themepost and it's something that everyone can easily take part in 

I like the technical side of photography, so an image that uses creative techniques will rank higher (in my head) than a simple 'snapshot', but if the composition is poor, it'll lose marks. A shot of a trainer on it's own would be ok, but a dynamic shot of a trainer splashing through a puddle will pull in a better score. I think you get the idea
Just to clarify, it doesn't have to ONLY be shoes. Boots, wellies, walking boots etc (1 or many) will all count.
The Rules
1. All photographs are to be uploaded to the photo gallery at http://dpnow.com/galleries/
They can be put in members own gallery if they wish. The resulting link generated for the photo will then be pasted into the next available space in the salon thread. Please keep photos to a maximum of 800 pixels wide so people can see the whole image without scrolling.
2. One entry per user ID only please, which must be the personal work of the entrant.
3. Entries should be "in line" within the thread (not as a links to an image held somewhere else).
4. Comments on entries are welcome within the salon thread itself.
5. After the close, the curator will indicate a winner and a couple of runners up.
6. The curators decision is final.
7. The winner will be invited to choose the next theme and curate the next salon.
8. If the winner is unable to curate the next salon the current curator may offer that "honour" to any willing volunteer, possibly the entrant in second or third place.
9. These rules are to be copied and pasted with the new theme by the curator at the top of the new salon thread with a finish date and time.
10. As with all photos posted on DPNow, copyright remains with the photographer and DPNow will not use them without permission.
The salon will run to Midnight (GMT), Monday 12th November 2012
Have fun!!
