          Just added a photo in the comp, with influence from Fern4 :-)

          I usually edit my photos so I didn't think it was appropriate to enter many previous competitions, but the one I have entered in this month (January) is not edited other than conversion and minimal sharpening. Fortunately the light was just right to work with F8, to create a quite dark scene, but still capturing the essence of sunlight from the setting sun. The thing I aim for in my photos is pretty much to create an atmosphere for the person who views it.

            @stephenprudence I'm not sure of the restrictions for competition off hand but I believe we aren't allowed to alter photo's apart from size and framing. The rules are at the start of each competition if you want to check. :)

                      Oh sorry @Sheal Presume the problem is that I didn't specify which photo I was meaning. As bad at voting as taking photos hence why I don't enter any "snaps"!

                          @Simon Everett my apologies my friend,I have had to delete your image in the April photo comp as it was taken in 2013 which is outside the allowed date.

                          1. All entries to be taken in current competition month & submitted by 5pm on the last day of the month of the competition..
