Good Morning All

Well it is the first day of November and the weather here in Cyprus is certainly Autumnal.

So we thought that it would be an appropriate time to launch another Photo competition, which will run until the end of December.

Entries are welcome from anywhere, but just one entry per member please

Pictures should be of an Autumn or Winter theme. And a title would be good.

Jim has said that he will kindly offer a bottle of Bubbly for the winner. But it is the taking part that should be the incentive.

Here is a Sample pic from a very dear friend in the UK, taken within the last two weeks This is not an Entry...

If you have any problems posting just let me know, or send your pic to me via Email.

Hi Rob... Your being a little 'naughty'. Certainly the last winter comp winner wasn't a sunset. By the way I can't see your picture.

Hi Anne.

My friend does not post on the forum.

Regards to all. Trev..

Easington Village, County Durham. This is a 'panorama' I did last winter.

It does display when you click on the image a couple of times in the new windows that appear. You then scroll left or right to get the effect.

Love the panorama of the village green especially as my mate's house features on it.

Title: Lightning Strikes!

Taken from Tala in early December this year. I retreated inside shortly after this was taken - it was getting far too close for comfort!

Amazing photo. Shocked

I can still remember that night. Shocked

It's hard enough taking a photo of something that 'stands still' never mind taking a photo of something that moves like lightning Shocked

(pardon the pun) so good luck to you boyo. Very Happy
