Congrats to all - Good luck swsxp02 ;) :lol:

It's not that bad. Except one week I had to do the weekly comp and that monthly comp on the same day :help: But that's not gonna happen too often!

Some nice shots there and my first nil points to look forward to!

Well necessity being the mother of invention, hosting the Week 7 comp has:

* got me to set up a Flickr pro account
* develop a nifty Excel spreadsheet that takes the votes cast, allocates them to the entries and tots up the total points per entry - hopefully should make the job of scoring easier each week

Just got back from breakfast to find this. Thanks people, but Blimey, wasn't it close! Only a point separating each of the top three..... Well done everyone, and yeah Bob, here we go putting my server to the test! I'll post a thread shortly but probably won't start getting stuff until 11:00pm on Wednesday if others past experience is anything to go by

Congratulations guys!! Superb photos, I thought I was getting to recognise people's style, but wouldn't have attributed first place photo's style to swsxp02. Really impressive - congratulations!

It was very close. I had to double check my figures to make sure they were right!

Wow, that was close (possibly would have been closer if Sam wasn't afraid of spiders! ;) ). Top two were worthy winners.

Blimey that was close! Well done

I was going to ask if pic 18 was north wales as that is the only offshore wind farm I know of but looking at sworrals location I need ask no more. :D

No problem grayjackal, a little bit of excel coes a long way ;)

Yes, as you guessed John it is Barkby Beach in Prestatyn with the Windfarm on the coast

It was a toss up between that picture and this one but I thought this one was a bit dull as threre was no sun on the beach. Nice surge effect on the water though
