Photo Of The Month - December 2012 Entries

Post by Geo Ghost »

Sorry for the wait. Here's the December competition.


The theme for this month is Winter Wonderland - Something that typically shows winter, where-ever you may be in the world. Set by last months winner, The Irish.


Encase you're new, or need a refresh...
Rules can be found Here.
Please read and familiarise yourselves with them if you haven't before.
Previous winners can also be found on that page.


Note:
I'll leave entries open until midnight of the 1st of January this time. This is to allow for anyone on holiday, and also for people who may get some lovely photos on new years eve too. So you'll have a chance to get in any last-minute photos ;)




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:
I like to 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: 1112POTM_DaveW.jpg / 1112POTM_orudge.jpg / 1112POTM_GeoGhost.jpg / 1112POTM_Ameecher.jpg
You get the idea ;)

If you upload to the wiki with a different format, I will have to re-upload the image again with the right name. Sorry to be picky, but I want to keep all the entries organised and in the same manner.

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 till the 7th of each month (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. :D

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.


Good luck everyone and don't forget!

Nice entries so far. Just to make it clear. I'm not necessarily looking for something with snow in it, as I realise that in certain parts of the world, snow is not present in the winter time. So if there is something else typical to winter in your part of the world, that will do just as well.

Anyways, being in Europe, winter often comes with snow, so here is my entry:

Shame my camera is my HTC Desire C, it was thick frost this morning as the Pacer arrived, white all around except for the blue/purple liveried train, it was something out of a postcard background, if you remove the Pacer. Would have made a great picture, had I got a proper camera >.<

Great entries so far this month though, some really gorgeous looking landscapes.
