Congrats on a well-deserved win JonnyM got my vote.
Up DigiDiva – Poor Old Ted

Love this one and it nearly got my vote well taken and thought out but in the end couldn’t resist that wee dogs face

Down LaPistola – Kill Tree

Nice well taken shot and fits the theme of being discarded and can’t fault it, unfortunately for you and I there were too many other good shots this week

Thanks all for your comments on the up & downs it is much appreciated.

He's a right tearaway and a scallywag to boot, that face is put on. I have to admit if he wasn't looking at the camera I think your Teddy would have won the day.

Haha I was fairly beaten. However Ted won't come out to play now as he is in a huff!!!!

Sorry if these are a bit late. Been on holiday with no Internet. Couldn't even vote!

Ups - Discarded life. Great idea well executed. Personally I'd like to have seen the image a little sharper. Not a criticism ate all as loads of detail there, but that would have been the icing on uthe cake for me. But like I said, well executed and presented shot. Good work.

Downs - Discarded rubbish. Nice photo. Great idea. Focus spt on and nice DOF. Can't fault the photo. Well done.

Thanks for the comments on my photo. I did try to desataurate the background and have the bike standing out in bright yellow, but beig something of a Luddite just couldn't get it to save properly.
Lots to learn when it comes to photoshop skills.
