i need everyones opinions to decide on that. I should go follow the rules and make a run-off competition but then again theres going to be the people saying you shouldve won although you broke the rules.

Well honestly Im not gonna argue with you. I dont really care. Its just the fact that I made an apology for an honest mistake. With taking away my vote, plus another vote as a penalty, I still win. Several people agreed to that. I'll leave it up to the people now...

wanna know my opinion? (probably not) fiero is a good member and i belive him when he says this-we should blame drakkie for posting the rules bunched togather in size 5 font-however, before we kinda kicked out Rik (cotterik) cause he got himself 2 cheap votes so maybe we should go with what we did befo'

Thanks, you pretty much have to try to get a bad shot, it's so nice out there. But yeah sadly, it was really overcast that day, it would've been great had it been sunny like in the first one.

2 cheap votes? some of my family voted for me so i agreed to have the votes removed and give away a victory. You make it seem like i voted for myself. I'm no hypocrite. In this case the member did vote for himself and doesnt agree to having the victory taken away from him. Completely different?

thanks, i realy do love that shot. It reminds me of a shot i took at a similar lake but it wasnt the right location to achieve the background image that you were able to get. Well done on that one :)

11-15-2005, 11:55 AM

Thanks a lot, it wasn't an easy shot to get. I was standing about 10 feet from shore on a rock holding the camera down by my feet. Expect to see a few more Lake Louise shots in the comps, I took tons in the week I was there.

Weve only had the tank two months, it came with the fish, the person we bought it off (£200 of eBay, no bids as it was local collection only, he was about 5 miles away! One fish even survived hidden under a rock with no water for 4 hours!)cleared peoples houses as a removal's man and sometimes had stuff donated to him if it was hard to move (Ie a fish tank!) he had it for about 2 weeks, and after trying to clean it with wire wool (scratching it to peices!)then decided to sell it, so we dont know how old any of the fish are. the plants are fake by the way!

However jaw droppingly beautiful that photo is, isn't Photoshop illegal?

EDIT-Just noticed the little foot note-I have a cheap camera, I don't get little gizmos like that. :p

No, with canon cameras your are able to manipulate colours, in which he did in this shot.
