Discussion goes in this thread, entries in the other thread

For this month's challenge I'd like you to capture your view of what human nature and how the seven deadly sins impact on it in the current world. Your interpretation of this can be as open as you like...and people don't necessarily need to feature in the image.

Rules
The photos taken must be your own work
The shot MUST be taken this month, with the closing date being midnight on the last day of the Challenge month
The exif must be posted with your shot
The competition will run from the first to the last day of the month
The winner from the previous month decides on the topic for following month and judges it at the end of the month
The Challenge for next month should be generic, as not everyone has access to zoom, macro, specialist lenses. It should be shots that everyone is capable of achieving with the bare essentials.
There will be two threads that need starting: The Entries thread to commence same time as Discussion thread. In the Entries thread only one picture should be entered. Any others you wish to discuss should be posted in the Discussion thread.
All entrants acknowledge that they may indeed win and that their adherence to convention ensures everyone else's continued fun.
Photos entered should be no bigger than 750 pixels wide for a landscape photo and 600 pixels high for a portrait photo. Some people still have black and white tellies, and use these stupid 3G phone things for browsing the interweb Links to larger versions are permissible.


Good luck all.

For anyone else that had to google to remember them all, here they are

Wrath, greed, sloth, pride, lust, envy, and gluttony.

Good theme, I like it

Haha, if I'm honest, I couldn't remember them all without looking either!

Anyone know how to get this stickied? Or will it just get taken care of automatically?

Well this was an extremely disappointing turnout...

JSS 911, don't let this detract from your victory, I genuinely enjoyed what you produced and thought that your photo would be hard to beat. Maybe you scared everyone else off?!

Anyway, I look forward to what challenge you set for March!
