    [​IMG] Voting time again folks..!!! This month is going to be very difficult, as always, to decide on just three, The weather has had some very good attemps to make this month's comp theme a "wash-out", but despite it's best efforts you have all captured a view or vista somewhere.... [​IMG]


    Users Vote Guidelines below:-

    1. Competitors cannot vote for any of their own photographs.

    2. Please vote on a 1st, 2nd and 3rd place basis with 1st place carrying 5 points, 2nd place 3 points and 3rd place 1 point - The photograph with the highest points wins.
    NO VOTES FOR 2 1ST PLACES ETC

    3. Votes should be cast within three days after this thread starting.

    All members of the forum get a vote, not just those who've submitted pictures.


    The Winner of the competition chooses the theme for the next competition, keep it seperate from the other comp theme. So put your thinking caps on in case you are the winner. [​IMG]


    [​IMG] Good luck in making a decision, there are some excellent pictures this month. :cool:

    [​IMG] Well Done & Good Luck everyone...!!!! [​IMG]

    Hard stuff this decision making!

    1 - Pete - Beachyhead (I liked the composition and the way the walking couple drew ones eye down the path)

    2- Rosa - Del Seaton Sluice (nice scene and a lovely sharp photo, very paintable)

    3 - Strongylodon - Bamburgh Castle (quite an imposing vista)

    And very nearly in my top 3 was jjdecay's "Sunset", smashing photo, but I was being really picky and had to rule it out due to the framing. Sorry [​IMG]

    1st Last-of-the-vista, baby. (despite the clean boot!)

    2nd No reason to feel blue.

    3rd Nighttime in Paderborn.

    I would like to mention that I really liked WOO's castle within a castle and would have given it a place except it was a bit wonky - sorry WOO - who am I to nit pick? I'm no photographer.

    Well done everyone. I hope I have the courage to enter one day. [​IMG]
