Took a few at the weekend so will pour over them and send one in, is there a limit to the number of photos? I know I have two which I really like :D

No-one else? I've sent one but hardly worth running unless you have at least 5

Nope, just the two.

To be honest, I already decided that I wouldn't try to cajole people into entering like I did last time. There are plenty of great pics being taken - you only have to look at the PPT to see that, but it seems that, for whatever reason. the majority of posters in that thread don't want to enter the competition.

I'll obviously leave this open until 10pm tomorrow, but perhaps the format needs refreshed somehow (themed competitions?) or frequency changed - monthly perhaps? Probably worthy of another thread for discussion purposes....

I've now sent one in - I really hope I don't win this time...

I think if there is going to be a re-think of the POTW, then maybe we should make the loser host it...? :lol:
