    Photo of a painting LOL, but you are right and so I removed it. Just thought something a bit different might be put in. Seems I was wrong. I raised the question of when photos should be taken because some of the bees and roses looked like summer photos. Then again - we are having a late autumn. A recap of the rules seemed required, but some folk are so touchy and see accusations when none are intended.

    Okay, HB, thought you were having a pop at me! [​IMG]

    I have looked at the original rules and I see nothing relating to the restriction of the date of the photo taken! [​IMG]

    Did you look at my storks and gypsy horses?

    Not having a pop at you LOL. Not at all. Just wanted to be clear. The mods or someone should make things a bit clearer perhaps. Can we all assume that the monthly photo comp should include only photos taken that month? Otherwise, there seems little point in the comps at all.

    Although most of my photos have been taken during the month of the comp, not all of them have. Cant find anything in the rules that says they should be.
    I have tried to fit a photo I have already taken to the theme, sometimes [​IMG]

    Hi all
    As a newbie to the Photo comp. can you tell me if the rules state that it must be a 'straight' picture or can it be an image manipulated with Photoshop?

    I'll take a chance I can always delete if there are any objections.
