As per usual have a look at the entries and decide which fits the theme of winter/christmas best in your opinion. Unfortunately only two entries this time.
Remember we are late voting so winner =highest votes Midnight Monday night.


Please note: the aim of this is to get people out and to use their cameras in different ways to what they might normally do so, to achieve this the rules state that the photograph must be taken in the month of the competition and relate to the theme in some way.

Each month a different thread will be created and at the end of the month a poll will be added including all entries that are deemed valid. Non valid entries will be automatically excluded. The named winner then copies over the text of this post and replaces the theme with one of their choice.

Include a description of a few words as to why you feel your picture fills the theme.

Once the thread has been started peoples entries have to be posted in that thread. Each entrant is only allowed ONE POST in the thread to cover ONE IMAGE that he has entered. The last image posted is the one that will be used, all others will be removed when a Mod/admin can be arsed...

Deadline for all entries will be the 28th of the month that it starts on, leaving a few days then for Voting to take place and the winner to be declared.

I suggest that the winner picks the next theme by the 1st of the next month, so 2 days of voting start on the 28th by the 1st the winner will post another thread following the format as mentioned above, replacing the THEME with his/her chosen theme.

Those are the rules for entry - C&Pd from M3TAHEADs post.

Entry is now open for December 06.

Deadline Midnight of December 28th. Voting will take place once all entries are in.

The theme for this month will be Christmas/winter. Hopefully this wont be too difficult for anyone, even though its a little early for winter! Expect Winter to pop back up again in the new year.

Dating data will be needed too so be careful to preserve this if possible. exif is data that is inserted into photographs by digital cameras

If your picture is regarded as too big it may be edited to just a link by a Moderator, there is no upper limit on picture size.

Post your entries below, good luck!

Nothing special, I just thought the view out of my parents back garden in the morning frost was pretty this morning so I grabbed a load of pics:

The pictures pretty big so Ive linked it:

Btw, this was created using autostitch which appears to work an absolute treat.

heres my entry



tis the crib scene at my local church. EXIF has been eaten by my photo editor in resizing for the web, but given the subject Id have thought its pretty obvious it was taken within the month.

Its January... time to vote?

Could have put a simple poll up rather than asking Deaths Head, any mod can go it

My brother borrowed my camera in December and I havent got it back yet. Not that I have seen anything worth photographing

No I couldnt.  Photography is not a forum I frequent.

So? Ya just making excuses, man

Land slide victory to Terry?

Agreed. Terry put the new one up and edit the first post across as appropriate

Guys would it be worth doing a sticky (locked) with each months winner and link to that months post so people can comment?
