August Competition Open
« on: September 06, 2005, 09:23:44 »
Hi all,

The August competition is open for entries, and in response to some questions I've received, some rules   ...

  • The picture you enter can be of any subject not only garden / allotment related.
  • It must have been taken by you during the month of the competition, so during August (this year!) for this months.
  • I am limiting the competition to one entry per member per month.

Hope everyone understands and we continue to get excellent photographs entered.

Oh and lastly, good luck everyone.

Dan

This is a shot of Colwyn Bay from Rhos-on-Sea in Wales.
Sheldon, Birmingham.  I've put the pin on Google Earth where my shed is, in the allotments.  It's in an area with a satellite photo which is cool!  You can't miss it, there's a bl**dy great big Airport next door!

Great composition, and colours 2-spot :D  is it a Globe Artichoke flower? 

Good use of the walkboards in your shot, UP, but are they as unsafe as they look?!  Wouldn't catch me going along them, not unless I fancied a swim!  ;D

LOL! They're really safe! Been there for I don't know how long, it's where I spent many happy days as kiddie.  When tide comes up, you can dive into pool at end. One of my favouritist places. Lovely pics you 2, first attempt at proper, grown up photo for me!!! Lottie  ;D

Doubt this will win but the closest I've come to a picture worth entering!  One of those moments that you grab whe it comes before everything changes and hope it works out !

It's a wee bit bugging having to scroll from side to side for a good look at the picture.
Not to mention how it takes the edge off of trying get a good old gander at it.

Glyn, that's a gorgeous photograph.  Really lifting.

Thanks all - But the credit must go to the "Parks & Recreation Dep of Brantford" Who put in a great display every year. In fact, won the "Best Bloomin City"  award about four times in a row.
Glad you like the photo....
But it ain't over till the fat lady's picked her beans.
;D ;D ;D ;D
Hope you peeps don't mind my copying some of the great photos here
for my digi album? ;)

Yellow Petals-I've got the same problem here--the web window has got quite a bit larger ???
