And its week two of our Snapshots competition. Thanks to all who voted last week, and here are the entries for this week.

As part of the Snapshots competition we are asking our weekly online readers to vote for their favourite image of the week.
Two winners will go forward every week, leaving six of our readers images going forward to the grand finale with a chance to win our amazing prize package.
The overall winner as voted by the public will win a fantastic prize.
