Calm, serene, peaceful
in your private world and way,
you disturb my peace.

Well done and thanks to everyone who entered and voted in our Land and Cityscapes competition this month. As usual there have been some terrific entries.

• 1st place with 7 votes was @Josh217 with a stunning shot of the Quiraing on the Isle of Skye, Scotland.
• 2nd place with 6 votes was @ShipleyNW with a beautiful but very chilly shot of the Cascade Foothills, North America.
• 3rd place with 5 votes was @Nick L with a brilliant monochrome image taken at Stokksnes, Iceland.

Of course it hopefully goes without saying that everyone who enters here is a winner and I really appreciate you all taking the time to participate in these monthly competitions. I do need to figure out how to get a few more members voting though, if you have any suggestions please let me know.

The theme for our competition this month will be At Home which will be starting shortly.

Congratulations! All the submissions were fantastic, but those three? Absolutely deserving of the accolades.

 

[Dean Wilson]
