Competition - Round 8 - Public Highway

some good photos there, thanks to everyone who has entered this round, dont forget to vote! I recognise the shot from another competition too....
 
I think WRT recognition, I don't think it would be fair to stipulate complete exclusivity with each entry.
However, common sense does come into play, and a shot shouldn't be submitted if it's likely to be quite easily be spotted and associated with a particular member, due to it being shown elsewhere.

While we want the competition to be as anonymous as possible, to be too strict would be quite restrictive.

Like I say though, common sense should come into play.
If I have submitted a shot to a forum with 5 members who only speak swahilian (and aren't members here) and I wanted to also enter it here, then you bet your bottom dollar I would be doing.
But likewise, I wouldn't enter a shot that I've just been given credit for on the front page of BBC News. It's all about likelihood of being spotted.
If I spot an entry being shown on another forum, but I can't tie in that user to this forum, then I see no reason why it should be disallowed. If though, forum names are exactly the same, etc then it becomes tricky.

I personally haven't recognised any of the shots from this round, except one, which was shown on someones website I was browsing. But as I know who has entered what, then I'm allowed to know :D
 
The ones that got away.....

There's a track down the side a the river in Bristol that all the runners use that you can see from the top of the cliffs so I was going to take a photo of them (public) from the top of the cliffs (high) etc etc etc. 'cept that's what I was trying to do when I dropped my camera. :(
 
Now then! who's forgotten to vote on this one? I think the voting closes tonight. So if you've entered, you'd better vote!

And when do we get the results?

I wanna know if I've come last, or second from last!?!
 
its called Building to a climax!
 
All votes in, counted and collated, and the top three places, in no particular order except for winner first, second place second, and third place third :

Well done to all those who entered. It was a good competition this round, some great shots entered.

Regards
 
well done to everyone that entered and voted, particularly liked all 3 of them!
 
Well done everyone! Bod, I'm sure people would liketo know how they faired in the voting. :)
 
lol i dont!!!
 
Congratulations Steve, Petemc and Stepheno :thumb:

I actually entered a rubbish one to enhance your chances.
 
Well done everyone.

Congrats to Steve, Pete, and Stephano.:clap::clap::clap:

I might get the chance to enter a few now.
 
Well done guys, I've not really had the time to get the camera out lately either, hate these dark mornings and nights.
 
Well done - some really good images!
 
Thanks folks - I'm just pleased to be in such illustrious company. Pete, it's the best take on the light trail shot I've seen and Steve, I had you down for a different photograph.

regards
 
I am struggling with a decent subject for the next round. TBH I didn't think I had a chance of winning so gave it no thought at all. If anyone has any suggestions other than "Christmas" then please post away.
 
If only to widen the catchment/scope of the theme...

Celebration
Festivities/Festive
Winter (Ill get me coat :p)

but I do like christmas, and would be happy with that....
 
I don't want anything to do with Christmas or the festive season as by the time this round of the comp closes everyone will have had enough.

I can see the draw of gandhi's suggestion but wonder how many people would enter if I actually chose that.
 
got to agree with Steve, there are gonna be oddles of comps with Christmas or winter as the theme, lets be a bit different, thats what we are good at!
 
You could have Snow - but then some people wont get any and Steve will probably get too much :D

regards
 
What about "Sunset" ? There is one almost everyday and just about everyone will be able to photograph it from a different location.

Nothing wrong with the idea but the sun sets a bit early here at the moment, certainly before work finishes. That leaves the weekends and at this time of year there's no guarantee of sun :p
 
As it's nearly Christmas, how about Easter? :confused: (the eggs will be in the shops soon)

I like the idea of sunsets or even sunrises as you don't have to get up too early this time of year to get one.
 
Okay, in answer to non-seasonal festive ones, how about:

people
emotion
water
touch
speed
animal

Just a quick selection.

Both of them could be conveyed in the sunset/sunrise theme if you think carefully, as could many other subjects...it sets a theme not a particular subject ;)
 
Sun? (not particularly set or rise), also leaves a bit of scope....
 
How about a more animated theme that will get people out of their comfort zone like sport for example?
