Themes for Photo of the Month Competition
« on: Feb 25, 2013, 10:36 AM »
We have decided to ask the winner of the Photo Competition to choose a theme for the competition from this list of fabulous topics.  We will also ask the winner for a new theme so that we are continually adding to the list. 

Of course as we are always looking for new interesting themes for the Photo Competition we would be happy to hear from members on the Photo Competition Discussion topic :
