Voting starts at 4 am Saturday, Aug.11,  and will end at 9 a.m. Monday, Aug. 13. So get in your vote.

One vote per person, please.

The winner will be announced before 12pm on Monday.

Braintree editor Joseph Markman and Plymouth editor Casey Meserve, representing the South Shore and regional editor Margaret Bergman, representing the Cape and Martha's Vineyard, have contributed photos to get the ball rolling. These are unofficial entries.

We’ve added a little incentive. The winning submission will get a $75 gift card, plus bragging rights.

Next week's category is A Day at the Beach!

We’ll be taking photo submissions each week from 9 a.m. Tuesday through noon Friday. Voting will begin at 4 a.m. Saturday and end at 9 a.m. Monday, so make sure to check back over the weekend to vote for your favorite picture.
