I agree Vicki, and congrats to you too, all of the winners did really well. This was the first month that the winners were chosen by votes from previous winners.

It was a bit of a trial and I thought I would see how it worked before I decide whether or not to revert to a situation where the editorial board alone decides who wins, but I am sure everyone agrees that the current format is very successful.

Did you check here?

Thanks to both of you, and congrats to you Vicki.

I really like that picture of yours, it really shows a lot of your potential.
Keep up the good work and I am sure that you will soon not only be winning in this site, but on many other competitions if you wish to.

Perhaps I should have explained that Vicki,

Judges are all previous entrants who have been named as either winner, or highly commended in the photo contests, so you are well and truly a judge.

There is also a special forum section specifically for judges.

Have a read through it and ask any question related to voting and judging there.
