Birthday give-away Photo Competition TOP 10
Ok guys and gals......... So this has turned into quite a contest and the quality of the photos submitted have been absolutely fantastic.
Thanks again to everyone that entered  I have drafted in two friends .... who also happen to be professional photographers to assist - so the judging panel really knows what they are talking about...... and, incredibly, there has been huge consistency in the judging. For example, a general consensus about the TOP 10 was that these instantly stood out from the others in terms of attention to detail, the thought process involved and overall composition. I will also let you know the judges thoughts and comments when the FINAL FIVE WINNERS are declared next week. Please also note that you are still able to enter ONE new photo you think will stand up against the quality of these 10 finalists...... but be quick as you only have a few days to do so. That includes the finalists as well if they want to hedge their bets Add any new photos to THIS THREAD. The TOP TEN..... so no prizes yet (AND IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER) are as follows; Bofon13  ChrisB (Chris)  CMT (Chris)  Cornerstone (Patrick)  Drockadam (Adam)  esm (Eric)  FiguredMaple  Vincent65  Withthesword (Matte)  Longhorn

Wow - it's an honour to be nominated in the 'TOP 10', thank you!
Just for fun, here's another one I took on my phone; this one of the GMT was two days ago in some fresh snow. Bit of a contrast to the previous one of the SUB in the sunny Maldives only the week before! Good luck to all and nice photos everyone

An excellent choice indeed Steve! Those pictures are just stunning!
No need for myself to post another one, I'd much rather admire and see which ones will win one of your gifts! Good luck to everybody who participated!
