                    I think that my point has been missed. Alana stated that she would only vote for a horticultural theme in the competitions. So why now enter an image of her own that doesn't have that theme, it doesn't make sense to me.

                      I don't think we missed your point, Sheal. The point was dealt with a lot earlier in the Thread and Woo has restated what is acceptable regarding themes and images and I can't see anything positive being achieved by raising the issue again:dunno::coffee::snorky:

                        I accept and respect what Woo has stated previously regarding themes and images. :) But it'll be interesting to see how Alana votes this time.

                          To be honest, Sheal, the only vote that matters is your own:snorky:. What other people vote and why is not really important........what is is the result.:coffee::snorky:

                            the person who set this competition specifically said that it needn't have gardening connotations. :noidea: If Alana follows that then I can't see any issues of any sort. :)

                              Alana said she wouldn't vote for anything not gardening, she didn't say anything about putting up a picture that's not gardening :sofa:

                                Until it was pointed out by @"M" that I was being too prejudicial in my voting in last month's competition I didn't realise that members of the site would take umbrage at the reasons for my choices.

                                @Sheal I've looked at the rules of the competition and I accept that the criteria is broad and "anything goes" so my future entries in the competition and my voting will reflect this.

                                Perhaps we should put up the reasons why we haven't voted for the "non winning" entries and maybe the constructive criticism may help us all become better photographers.
