We are fully aware lots of people don't like Facebook and that's fine, you are more than welcome to click away now 
Now Open for Entries for the November TP Banner!
Each month we are asking you to post a photo that you think deserves that top slot on the FB page, that you can share and brag about to your friends. The winner will be chosen by member vote and the winning photo will be there for all to see for a month. You don't have to have a Facebook account to enter of course, the competition will take place here and just the winning photograph will be added to the page. The observant will notice we have shuffled things along slightly, so the banners will run from mid month to mid month. A slightly mad reason for this, mainly because we want the December comp to be Christmas themed [so start planning now], but don't really want to have for all December, keeping christmas near christmas and all that!
Of course there have to be a few simple rules and here they are.
So, here we go with this months, you are submitting photos that will feature on the page in November, so you have from now until just before midnight, Friday 31st October to get your entries in. The voting will then be open until Friday 7th November, so our winner can be announced and added to the page by start of 2nd week of November. Post them in this thread please.
Remember we run this every month, so it is worth remembering when you are taking photos to perhaps think about framing the odd picture to suit this crop with an entry in mind.
Good luck everyone
ETA: Just for reference, this photo is cropped to the correct ratio, so if yours doesn't look this kind of shape, then you need to check it again. [This is not an entry]
To demonstrate how the banner will look, including the left hand profile picture which obscures some of the image, here is how it looks featuring a previous winner.

Of course there have to be a few simple rules and here they are.
- The photo you submit MUST be cropped to this ratio > 851px x315px - This is where the challenge will lie, finding the right photo for such a ratio and avoiding the main focus being on that left hand side. Any photos not to this ratio will unfortunately not feature in the voting.
- You will have one week each month to submit your photo and voting will be open for one week afterwards.
- By submitting your photo, you are granting TalkPhotography permission to use that image for a month on the Talk Photography Facebook page and a post promoting the fact you have won within the status updates on the page.
- The Talk Photography facebook page is an open, public page, so we must ask that all photos are 'family' friendly. [in other words, use your common sense ] but other than that, the theme is totally open.
- You may add a small lower/upper right hand corner watermark if you wish, but no great big ones that cover/distort the photo or generally spoil the viewing experience.
