In the spirit of the Harvest season, it could also be things we can drink!

Last time I looked yesterday Turtle and I were neck and neck on 3 votes each -I was thinking, just in case, of a category and came up with Food and Drink -weird coincidence! :D

That's amazing! Great minds think alike? Must be something in the air LOL. No seriously, this is such a bountiful season, and I thought a theme in keeping with it might work. It doesn't have to be a literal depiction of food and drink either - a billboard or advertisement, a sculpture of something eating something else perhaps. The world is full of things like that!

It doesn't have to be a literal take on the theme either. I really liked your interpretation of Street Art in the last Comp. for example (I voted for one of your photos!)

Re: New Photo Competition 19
 
What a great start - I'm feeling hungry already!

Just had a look - what a great selection of photos. Keep 'em coming!

Re: New Photo Competition 19
 
Had another look at the gallery for this comp to see the latest photos and there is something strange happening - one of the photos has had nearly 10,000 views and a number of others also seem to have had really high views. Hope it isn't some kind of problem like a virus or something...

I did actually contact Mick via a p/m to find out if he knew what was going on when the numbers started to rise so high by leaps and bounds - would be great to think so many people are viewing all the photos, but I doubt it. At first I thought it was very funny but then started to worry a bit about it. Mick thought it was probably a glitch of sorts, and, as he pointed out, the end result is determined by votes anyway - not views.
Best wishes to all - and many thanks to the almost 10,000 viewers, bit of a boost to my self-esteem - this said tongue-in-cheek of course. Cheers!!!!

There might be a glitch, had a look at one it had 66 views, logged out & then back in and it had jumped to 69, tried it with another and that jumped by 3 views in less than 10 seconds.

Same here - I really could have done with 2 votes!

Margaret Pilkington 22-09-2013 09:17

Re: New Photo Competition 19
 
I could have done with 5 votes Dainne...and then I think I would still have been head scratching.
I just wish that more folk would get involved.

I just had a looksee and counted that 19 people have cast a vote which is possibly better than in previous competitions. Still quite spread out but there are 3 main contenders so it's going to be interesting to see who gets that extra vote!

Margaret Pilkington 22-09-2013 21:13

Re: New Photo Competition 19
 
Well done Mick......I could just eat a slice of that with a nice strong brew.

maxthecollie 22-09-2013 21:15

Re: New Photo Competition 19

Margaret Pilkington 22-09-2013 21:17

Re: New Photo Competition 19
 
Oh No Frank......! I mean a nice strong brew of tea. Builders stuff that makes the cup go brown.
Anyway cake doesn't go with beer..does it?

Turtle 22-09-2013 21:19

Re: New Photo Competition 19

Re: New Photo Competition 19
 
Congratulations to a worthy winner! Well done! Have to confess though, as much as I liked the cake photo - very professional looking cake btw, talk about hidden talents, I did rather fancy the two blokes eating fish and chips - well I didn't actually fancy the blokes but I DID fancy the f and c's. Brought back great memories of good old Lancashire fish and chips, could even taste them when I saw the photo. Hence it got my vote.
Nevertheless Mick, your photo deserved to win and I'm sure the cake was much appreciated, although mention of a Nursing Home is a bit too close for comfort these days - oops!
