Post by: Garden Manager on October 07, 2008, 12:23:33: I think i have just voted for the wrong photo! I wanted to vote for the popular garden photo, which when I clicked to vote appeared to be number 3. Once the site had registered my vote the garden picture had become number 5 but I had still voted for number 3 (which I didnt like that much). I feel conned by the website/software. If it happens againI shall stop taking part in the competitions!

Don't know why it didn't pic up the Pic number for each one, GA. Hope the amendment helps others. In future I'll not rely on it, I'll also post the numbers separately.

Beautiful isn't it? Got my vote too :)

I don't understand what GA is saying? I voted about five minutes after the comp opened and they were all in the correct order at that time and my vote registered for the correct number.

relax it is only a bit of fun - loads of pics posted throughout the forum are wonderful, this is just one part of it - I've voted for the wrong pic before now cos i wasn't paying enough attention ;D

shame there weren't more contributors though - don't folks have back doors ::)

Post by: calendula on October 10, 2008, 10:19:23: ;D ;D kenkew and debster but the thing is not all images have to evoke ideas of beauty, images can be interesting in so many ways and if outside the back door there is nothing but dustbins for example then that image 'says' a lot but I guess it is being a bit nosy wanting to see the views from back doors :)

I am sure we could stretch the definition to any door ie front or side door, in that situation.

Post by: Tee Gee on October 13, 2008, 15:48:20: That's a beautiful garden GA it would have got my vote as well.

For anyone interested the picture I submitted was looking right out of my back door.

If I had had a ' wide lense' on my camera I would have shown you the full view, perhaps this picture looking 'left' of my back door will give you the wider picture.

( I have submitted the one I entered into the competition to save you all going into another thread)

Looking left;

Post by: Bryan on October 13, 2008, 20:49:01: Hi all,
I don't have a back door because I am homeless. Therefore I don't have any doors, even my allotment shed doesn't have a door, best not to have so it can't get broken into.
Bryan.

Post by: Paulines7 on October 18, 2008, 09:46:20: Congratulations Tee Gee. How lovely it would be to step out into a back garden like that.

Mine was number 3. I wasn't going to enter as my garden is just grass, a barbed wire fence and the field beyond, but I went outside one evening when the sun had set and the sky was pink. I didn't expect it to get any votes though so thank you to those peeps that voted for it. We have plans for the back garden but are concentrating on other areas at the moment.
