Your pictures: Dry

Each week we publish a gallery of readers' pictures on a set theme. This week the theme is dry, and we start with a picture from Sean Anderson of dishes drying.

A lone tree stands in the desert in Morocco

Sylvia von dem Busche: "This was taken in Merzouga, Morocco, at about 5am."

Graeme Hubbard: "I wouldn't expect to enter a picture taken in the Lake District in the category 'dry' but I liked this autumn study of a dry stone wall."

Andy Barrett: "A dry white wine, taken in my garden on a hot, dry day."

Animal skins drying on the ground in Morocco

Catherine Holloway: "Freshly dyed animal skins are left out to dry before being transformed into leather goods - taken on holiday in Fez, Morocco."

Donald John MacAllister: "This was taken near Cranfield University on a Sunday afternoon walk. It has been so dry recently the topsoil has begun to crack."

Slackchith Rasprasith: "Drying our clothes along the corridor of a typical Singapore flat."

Footprints and a shadow in the Sahara desert

Yugandhar Karna: "This picture was taken on a hike into the Sahara desert near the Aswan cataracts. It quickly gets very hot and dry even a hundred metres away from the river."

Clementine Geeves: "I found this snake skin in a tree which had dried in the sun."

Trudie Davidson: "Looking at this photo always makes my mouth feel dry - just that one drop left..."

Mina W. Wardakhan: "Sandboarding in the Great Sand Sea dunes, close to the Siwa Oasis, Egypt."

Lee Garner: "All dry, taken down, folded and put away in the proper drawer." If you'd like to enter, send your pictures to yourpics@bbc.co.uk. Further details and terms can be seen on the photo blog, just follow the link below this gallery.
