    1 - Redstar - Favourite Mud Puddle A lovely candid shot of childhood fun and innocence

    2- WOO - Fav Field Super composition, love the colours

    2 - Marley - Pond Favourites The angle the pic was taken from has turned this into something well above the average 'froggy photo' You didn't risk giving the prince a kiss did you Marley?

    So hard to choose.


    1 st Redstar-Our Favourite Mud Puddle-I loved the whole idea behind this picture, children playing and obviously having a blast

    2 nd Cumberland-My Favourite Place of all Time-Not surprised Cumberland-breathtaking place, and I really enjoyed the secrecy and the way the light played through the picture.


    3 rd Jim&Vicki-Favourite way to cool down-again, children know how to cut to the heart of the matter, and a picture taken with love.



    I didn't enter as I had an eye op shortly after it opened this month-and frankly I couldn't have competed with the rest of them in honesty-so many to choose from this omnth well done everyone.

    All are great photos and it was difficult to choose just three, but here's my vote:

    1st - Cumberland - My Favourite Place of all Time. Absolutely stunning and great composition.

    2nd - Woo - Favourite Field. One of my favourite sights of summer.

    3rd - Redstar - Favourite Mud Puddle. Oh to be a child again!
