The theme for the August contest is "Water, Lakes, ocean, ponds, rain storms, flooding. No water sports though." The theme was chosen by by Rebl2, winner of the last contest.
There are three threads. Please vote in each one and leave comments, as we love to read them!
These preliminary threads will run for 72 hours. They are posted in GD with the permission of the Administrators.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
