Photo of the Month - September 2016 - Entries

Post by Voyager One »

New month, new competition!

Theme:
"GOING HOME"
... set by the last month's winner Geo Ghost

"At the end of the day, at the end of a trip, at the end of a week. We all head home. However, it isn't just passengers who head home. Trains head back home to their depot, aircraft head home to their origin, fishermen battle the weather to get back to port after many long weeks at sea, staff signing off after a long evening shift, and so on.
I'm looking to see photos that reflect that feeling of being able to return back to where home is to rest for another day. Hopefully it won't be too difficult, but it'll be challenging enough to produce some really interesting photos"



As always, rules can be found HERE.

How to enter:
Easy - simply upload your image to this topic to enter or link it from a trusted site such as flickr, photobucket, DeviantArt, your personal website etc.
Uploading is preferred as it keeps things together. If you're linking from a URL, having a small 'preview' image and a link to a high-res image would be helpful.
If uploading direct to the wiki:
Let's keep entries in a certain named format for organisation reasons as well as keeping record of them in the entries topic and here. If you prefer to upload to the wiki, please keep it in the same naming format as other entries and inform me they are already on the wiki. Name format is - month|year|POTM_user name.
For example: 0916POTM_Dave.jpg / 0916POTM_orudge.jpg / 0916POTM_GeoGhost.jpg / 0916POTM_Ameecher.jpg
You get the idea ;)

At the end of the month, this topic will close and a voting topic will be started with all the entries in for people to choose their top one.
All entries will be uploaded to the tt-forums wiki and stored there for voting and also for archive.
Entries close on the last day of the month, voting will be available for 7 days (approximately).
The winner will need to contact me about what they want the next theme to be and then that will be posted in the entry topic for the next month*. Then we repeat from there. Simple.
(* If the winner doesn't choose a theme within 7 days, the next month's theme will be an "Open" theme).

If you wish to change your entry, you may so long as the entries are still open. Simply upload a new one to the topic and remove your old one.
Otherwise, it may get confusing as to which one you are entering. If there are two entries submitted and you have not informed me which one you wish to be used, I will use the first one posted.

Cheers people!
Leon

I'll start it off with a basic picture from my evening commute. I managed not to hit anyone as I stuck the camera up through the moon roof :)

I may substitute this with a better picture if I'm able to get over to take another one I have in mind.

Satisfied and tired after an eventful day at sea, it´ll now turn again to daily routine for the tourists. Soon they´ll deboard and drive home with their waiting cars.
