    [​IMG] Well Woo was our very well deserved winner last month.... We all faced stiff competition from him last month I think.. ;) :D


    Well Woo has chosen this months theme, which is "Capture the Moment"

    I have talked to Woo & we have made the theme very broad & open this month as it is a special month..
    [​IMG] It can be Garden, wildlife, family, pet, Xmas or what ever that special moment is......! Dad slipping off the chair!! Whatever.. :D


    This should certainly give us all a chance to use our photographic skills to the full with a theme as broad as that... [​IMG]


    The competition is of course based on the integrity & honesty of the entrants first & foremost...!!

    We all have different cameras & that is what having the competition is about... Our ability to take a good photograph, to improve on that if we can with each photo we take, interpret the months theme as widely & imaginatively as we can..... without editing enhancement! So good luck everyone!

    There will not be any prizes for this Competition, just the self-satisfaction of gaining and showcasing your photography skills.


    Please follow the guidelines below:-

    1. All entries to be submitted by 23.59Hrs on the last day of the month of the competition.

    2. You can enter up to three (3) pictures.
