Hi all,
This months Subject was chosen by Doo following her win in the October competition.
Her chosen subject is Weather - The photo can be of anything you like, as long as you would consider the subject to contain an element of weather.
To quote Doo: "artists can interpret as they wish!:
The Rules:
* Please resize all photos to 800 pixels wide MAX to enable easy viewing
within the competition thread.
* Please could you list what camera, lens, ISO, shutter speed and aperture
you used when taking the photo. (Photobucket will tell you this when you
upload the image.)
* One Entry Per Member (if you want to show other possible entries,
please use and appropriate section/thread to show them)
* All images must be your own work
* All entries must be recieved by Midday, Thursday 1st January 2009.
Note: If you decide to change your entry during the month, please make it clear when you submit your new entry. This way your original entry can be discounted.
weee!

It sure does in my book mate. :)
Some good entries so far please keep them coming.
Please note the extended entry time this month. This is due to Christmas/New Year period, and me feeling kind. As who knows what weather we may get over this month - perhaps something good on New Years Eve? So I have given extra leeway to get your entry in this month. ;)
Good luck folks

This was such a tough one for me, so many different ones I could choose from... heaps of snow ones but settled on this;
Taken with a Fuji 8 megapixel work camera (sorry for lack of spec) in Yorkshire Dales this year.

LOL yours is good mate! Closing date was today anyway although it was 42min late but that could have something to do with a bottle of Southern Comfort!!

In the strict sense of the word JRW's photo was late, however I will let it stand on this occasion.
Get it in on time next time - Southern Comfort or not! ;);)
The Competition is now officially closed.
The voting thread will be up shortly.
