Here is your chance to vote/comment on this months photo comp. A difficult subject you have to agree but interpreted well by most. It's just a shame that Anon in northern Jockland doesn't have a braincell. Oh well, perhaps he can improve next (this) month :roll:

So:

Rules as below and voting will close at midnight on Wednesday 7th December prompt.

The rules:

* Voting occurs for one week from midnight on the last day of each month until midnight on the seventh day of the month.

* Please vote for your favourite three images.

* You cannot vote for your own image*

Your 1st choice will be awarded 5 points.
Your 2nd choice will be awarded 3 points.
Your 3rd choice will be awarded 1 point.

If there is a draw on say for example 15 points, then the image with the least number of votes will win, such that an image with 3 votes for 5 points will defeat the image with 5 votes for 3 points. It won't be the '2nd best' for everyone, but it will be the 'best' for the few. If it's good enough for a Grand Prix then it is good enough for here.

Please try and keep this thread for votes only, it will make it easier for me to tally up later. If you must comment on images and decisions then please do so in the original thread (once it is unlocked).

This thread will run for 1 week only. At that time the winner will have the option of choosing the next theme, and the deadline for entries to that theme will be the end of the current month.

Most importantly, good luck to all entrants.

1st - Shoppers (don't know why I like it, but I do.)

2nd - Stranger In A Strange Land (would have come 1st, but I didn't quite get the link to the theme.)

3rd - Could It Be Stranger (that is pretty strange)

Lo peeps

Voting from the far (but not furthest) north where I was running about in the snow this afternoon and throwing snowballs :D

1. Alone in the crowd - my idea but I couldn't find a big enough crowd :oops:

2. Could it be stranger - Like the lateral thinking on this one.

3. Shoppers - not an obvious shop but they are shopping. Don't think they are strangers though ;)

1. Who knows? - Close call between this and my second choice.

2. Alone in the crowd - I only ever manage that effect by accident.

3. Stranger in a strange land - I just like it.

Hmm, tricky one to judge this month and a very challenging subject as well.

Anyway, here are my votes:

1 - Strangers Because of the Glass

2 - Stranger in a Strange Land

3 - Standout

Steady on - only one change at a time. Don't want to overburden the already frazzled braincell ;)

Chilly for June???

1. Shoppers.
2. Alone in the crowd
3. Stranger in a Strange Land

I rather liked "Standout" too, but there can be only three. For me, the first place was quite clearly my favourite image.

Can anyone get Who Knows? to load? If they can, can they email me it so I can have a look? Ta.
