    Just seen your posting dendrobium -

    Sophie was quite a small cat. Pic taken a bit ago as she is now 'planted' beneath her favourite lilac tree. :(

    Just seen that photo Rosietu - if I wasn't so full of easter egg, I'd be tempted to go and make some too! And as for Fran's pic - I love it. I don't know if I'll manage to decide which one to vote for this month - far too many fantastic photos! :rolleyes:

    As you are stuck indoors you'll no doubt be cooking up some more kitchen creations, we can't be far away from you! [​IMG]

    Marley .. nice pic. You were lucky, when I last came back from the US I was on the wrong side for the sunrise. (plus some grotty kid kept kicking the back of my seat all the way!) :D

    Orchid man ... you keep poison arrow frogs as well?
    The general idea is to enter our own photos, in case you had not noticed.

    Regarding web photos, really it's down to Nathan (Webmaster) but personally I only use my own pics on any message boards I use as it avoids copyright issues. Besides, it's more fun that way ;)

    For anything else it's a courtesy to provide a link back to the original source of photo or information rather than copy/pasting. Google for 'Netiquete' :cool:

    Agree with that, forgesque. This is a comp for amateur photogs!

    BTW - there are some really ace picture this time. I have already earmarked about four to vote for. I'd just like them all to win!!

    I thought it was obvious they are our own photos, it would hardly be a competition if we used other peoples, would it? [​IMG]
