    :)Thank you to ALL who voted for my photo "Feed Me"and to those who in anyway enjoyed it.

    I must say I am extremely chuffed,after all.......ALL of the final photos were winners.

    I remember taking the pic. back in June in my bosses garden.I took probably 10/15 pics.most of which were average,but the joy of this opportunity was that the nest was head height,perfect for pics.
    The camera is a point and shoot Canon IXUS iS which very rarely lets me down.
    Thanks once again.
    Also Congratulations and very WELL DONE TO
    Strongy.

    All Winners

    Thanks too to Gardeners Corner for providing the format for us to show off our pics.
    A BIG thanks to Marley Farley who works tirelessly,month after month to make our comp. so fair and successful and believe me I know she has had her fair share of hassle lol.

    Here is hoping for another year of exiting ,imaginative pictures.

    Rod.

    :gnthb: It was so well deserved roders... Over the years you have come up with some quite stunning photos in all of the competitions..
    I look forward to what you might "Wow" us with during this coming year roders.... As you have so rightly shown, you can take the most stunning photos by being in the right place at the right time, whether your camera is expensive or point & shoot..... roders is a fine example
    of what you can do..!

    :gnthb: A great big " Well Done" & a great big "Thank you" too, to all the runners up & your superb photos too... All a winner in their own way... :yho:

    :gnthb: To everyone who takes the time to enter the competitions I thank you all too, for without you there would be no competitions...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    :thmb: So here's wishing everyone Good Luck with their entries for this coming year..

    Marley.
