Once weekly we will be presenting you with another superb entry from our recent competition. The basic premise was that you had to submit at least six photos, along with a piece of writing, whether fiction, non-fiction, or poetry.

Contributions by Andrew, Edward, Veronica and Dave. Looking through flickr, there are photo trends, that is to say there are subjects that creep up all the time, especially in the field of toy camera photography.
