Title: 2016 Archive - Poll for the March Photo Competition HOT (CLOSED)
Post by: Lynda Bradford on Apr 01, 2015, 10:52 AM: Photo of the month competition - instructions on how to vote for your favourite photo

Thank-you to Isabelle Prondzynski the winner of the December competition, who suggested the theme, "HOT" for the March Photo Competition.

Plus a big thank-you to everyone who submitted photos, which we really appreciate

Voting is easy but you need to be a forum member and log into the forum to vote. Even if you have not submitted photos please support those who have participated by choosing your three favourite photos, noting the details then tick the relevant box on the poll. But if you have submitted photos please do not vote for the photos you have entered.

To make it easier for you we have posted the photos below, however you can also view the photos in the Gallery. When there are many entries you will probably get a better view of the photos in the Gallery where you can see them all at once, in thumbnail form plus you can view larger versions of the pictures by clicking on the photo to see medium size, then click again, to see them in large size.

Click on the Gallery button from the forum or click on this link:
