Oh definitely, the atmosphere is just stunning!

I also loved the picture of the rolling sea coming in, the birds and the cut butternut squash.  It was a hard choice this time.  So much talent allround  :wave:

Congratulations, Nick, you deserve to win - and thank you for setting it all up.  It would be lovely if more people voted as well.  How can we bring it to  everybody's attention more?  Can't believe there are only 24 people who regularly look at this site.
Great photos everyone.  I voted for the orange squash close-up, as I loved the drops, especially the drip at the bottom.

I wish I knew Peanuts.  There is only so much bumping one can do before it becomes a little annoying for everyone else.  I guess keeping the thread on the front page is the only real answer but there is so much going on at this time of year and a photo comp isn't that important.

I hope we get a lot more pics next time around and a lot more people voting!

Just a small query about the voting;

Is voting for your own picture barred or not?

I never vote for myself particularly if we only get one vote

Looking forward to the reply...Tg

It is not barred as such and I cant tell who voted for what but I would say it is bad form really.
