PHOTOS: Vote On Your Favourite Pictures Of The Week
|

The best pictures of the week are chosen by YOU voting on our interactive slideshow.

Twerking is now included in the english dictionary thanks to Miley Cyrus and her racy VMA performance.

The former Disney star managed not only managed to upstage Lady Gaga, but she also sent twitter into a twerking frenzy.

David Beckham made an addition to his already enormous tattoo collection and showed it off in a true Baywatch-inspired jaunt on the beach.

And the Heavens sent a message from above... though it wasn't quite what anyone had been expecting.

Finally, our fuzzy friends from the animal kingdom have made their usual weekly appearance... it's all there in our pictures of the week.

Happy voting and we will announce the winner on Monday morning.

26 The pull of a dugongCOMMENDED: The World in Our HandsUSAWhen a dugong is feeding in the bay of Marsa Alam, Egypt, snorkellers flock to see it. On this occasion, Douglas found himself watching the snorkelers as more and more of them hassled it until it fled for the open sea. These tourists would undoubtedly agree that without dugongs the world would be a poorer place, but without control of the numbers and behaviour of snorkellers and divers, they only add to the pressure faced by the dugongs, just seven of which are known to live along the 100km coastline. The real problem is urbanisation of the coast, which is destroying the seagrass beds the dugongs depend on. What is urgently needed are controls on development and recognition of the value of the dugongs to tourism.Nikon D800 + 15mm fisheye f2.8 lens; 1/320 sec at f16; ISO 640; Nauticam housing; two INON z-220 strobes.
