Winner(s) for "Summer" - Static Shots
I was surprised when Robin approached me as the judge for Static Shots (not on the wrist) and without hesitation I accepted the honour, thinking that it won't be a tough job... but how wrong was I! The quality of the entries was exceptional and I told Robin that there's no way I can strictly adhere to the judging rule by selecting merely the top 3 winners. So I'll bend the rule a little by sharing my picks in a few categories which I think best representing the "Summer" theme before announcing the winner 
Now, which are the categories I have in mind for "Summer"? They are:
1. Harvest
2. Beach/Water fun
3. Outdoor activities
You get to collect the harvest and have the best outdoor fun during Summer!
So without further ado, my picks:
Cat.1 - Harvest
From amanico: Perfect AP goodness with the wonderful gift from the nature
From amanico: Wonderfully red... Can't love this pic enough!
Cat.2 - Beach/Water fun
From ch9698: The elusive platinum Nautilus surfaced for a summer tan
From ch9698: A little shower for the hot Panerai Bronzo
From ch9698: Rolex COMEX SD lazing on her natural habitat... the golden sand here is in focused, then you realised the beauty...
Cat.3 - Outdoor activities
From Subexplorer: Oris vintage diver ready for some serious summer action. High quality shot!
From andrewluff: Sarpaneva enjoying some sun tanning
And now, the winner of Static Shot goes to:
Subexplorer
That shot of Oris is of great quality and immediately a potential winner the moment I saw it. Congratulations!
Just to add:
Our friends amanico, ch9698 and andrewluff have multiple shortlists purely by chance because their styles of photography and submissions matched my judging criteria very closely. The other entries for static shots are very nice too which make judging so much a challenge but fun!
Thanks for the opportunity PuristSPro! 
Best,
Wayne

The yellow flipflops have unfortunately fractured and have been disposed of, but perhaps my new white ones would make a better 'bunny' ;-) Abel's sunset shot was brilliant - congrats!
