THAT'S RIGHT! POTM is BAAAAAACK!

Since it's getting on spring and all, and it's not winter yet for the others...This month's subject is "nature". It's a broad scope out there. I ask for no cityscapes tho. GET OUTSIDE! And get pics! Can be flowers, animals, sunsets/sunrises etc etc.
PLEASE don't be shy-ANYONE can submit a pic, it's not a pro photo contest or anything, it's for fun!!! Original work only please, and not something from the archives..something "fresh!!!!!

GOOD LUCK TO ALL, and as per usual pls submit pics to:
oepotm@gmail.com

we'll host and post for ya with a poll.
Please send ORIGINAL and resized images. Resized for web use, original for cal. THANKS!

No kiding! I want so much for these monthly contests to work!!!!!!!!!!
If they do, the prizes will defo get better....the cal and e-mail addy are good incentives, but we'll look into making it worth your while, cf cards or something if this thing picks up.

Nobody should be shy, there are no photog pros here to compete against, nobody will mock any images submitted, or i'll frigging ban them, and really it's all about fun.
Come on and get something into us.:exclamati:exclamati:exclamati:exclamati:exclam ati:exclamati

Team,

You may need to screen out 3 of the shots as an Aircraft Carrier or Sail Boats are probably not Nature shots. :)
