Bob Gould is a retired aircraft engineer, who lives in Caerphilly, South Wales. He spends his time between home and exploring the canal network on his narrowboat Gimme Shelter. This image is of his and his daughters’ labradors taken on top of Caerphilly Mountain in South Wales. He uploaded it to Flickr using the hashtag #appicoftheweek. He explains, ‘My daughters held the dogs out of sight and released them on my signal. I was lying down, supporting the camera on my elbows. I used back button focusing to pre-focus on the horizon and shot as they came into sight.’ See more at www.flickr.com/photos/bob gould. Chosen by Michael Topham, Reviews Editor

We also likedÉ Portrait of my Daughter by Jay Mason-Burns Fujifilm X-T20, 25mm, 1/125sec at f/1.8, ISO 320. Shot in raw, converted in camera to Fujifilm Acros Red film sim with strong grain ‘I am a street photographer from south Birmingham. I shoot with Fuji, which I enjoy because it allows me to use vintage and budget lenses, such as the £40 Neewer 25mm prime that I got for Christmas. This is my daughter Isobel shot in our local park.’ Jay uploaded this to Twitter using #appicoftheweek. See more of his images on Instagram and Twitter @ jayjayjjetplane.
