This is going to be hard. All the photos are worthy of being there and another group should be. Its the hardest job done well.
Now to make a decision myself.

Sorry Cindy I just posted my comment in the general area, would you please delete my post did that before I came in here

 

Thanks Steve for the great job you have done with the photo comp, must have been a hard decision to pick only 10 out of that lot, I really like the comments you make about each shot.

I must congratulate Steve Jones on a job well done. I omitted to in my previous post, sorry. Steve has done a fantastic job in a very difficult situation. How would you pick the best 10 out of hundreds of which a great many could have been chosen.
I am having difficulty just picking one out of the ten.

OK...how do we vote if we do not have Outlook set up??  Each time I click to vote it wants to take me via Outlook which I do not have installed on this laptop.

just send an email, grabbed from Cindy's info page.

or by sending an email to: editorial@thegreynomads.com.au and by including - either in the subject line or in the email itself - the title of your favourite photo. Only one vote from each email address will be accepted. Voting closes at midnight AEST December 14 (ie the night of Dec 14/15) and the winner will be announced on December 15, 2011.

As Cindy says in the instructions, if you are unable to go through that link, email her with your vote.
Same as last time.

Only 2 stood out for me - and voting for only 1 was a hard decision - but I did it.

How did you go with your email problem, Boroma

They are all so fabulous, I had a hard time choosing too.

But my decision was made by the competition title...life on the road.

My vote's in.

Well.

I started this Monthly photo comp in the original Caravaner Forum originally
about 15 or more yrs ago.

Glad it's taking off so well here too.
People get to see so much more than they could otherwise.

Often with a different perspective on same subject
even if they were there, looking at it.

That was my original idea.
Differing perspectives\angles on things you'd normally never see in your life.
