Looking forward to next years challenges. We'll all have to work harder as the quality and creativeness is excellent.

Thank You to the people who donated the prizes to the contest, I'm sure everyone really appreciates your support!!

Tony

by **leek** on Fri Dec 09, 2005 11:59 pm

Before I depart for regions more wintery... I'd also like to congratulate the other winners... Well deserved...
Thanks also to the generous souls who donate prizes for these challenges... Thanks in particular to smac for the third prize - I didn't get around to thanking you personally tonight - very remiss of me...
And last but not least thanks to Scott for the considerable effort that he puts into the challenges... He is the master of suspense during the announcements...

Mal,

Leigh gets full credit for setting up the webcast. He even sacrificed some of his dinner in order to keep it all rockin' and rollin' for y'all folks at home.

I really have to say - and words simply aren't enough - how gratifying it is to be able to run this site, given the outstanding quality of the membership base that we have here.

The continuing generosity of people like Thanh and Poon, as well as Stuart (smac) and Russell (Thaddeus) simply astounds me, but it leads also to the contributions that have been made by others, like Matt K and Scott (MHD), Mitedo, Oneputt and Stubbsy, all of whom had a hand, in some way, in terms of this evening's event.

It's great to be a small part of this group of outstanding individuals: thank you all for being such a great membership.

by **barry** on Sat Dec 10, 2005 12:23 am

I would also like to congratulate all the winners. It was a good night, good food and the night was also a reminder of how good the photograhic skills of the member are within this forum.

Barry

Great night guys thanks. Rockstar well deserved. thanks Gary and all who organised. time for bed

by **Nicole** on Sat Dec 10, 2005 7:14 am

Congrats to all the winners. Awesome pics. Hope you guys had a great time.

by **rokkstar** on Sat Dec 10, 2005 7:59 am

I'm still a little bit shell shocked to be honest.
Many thanks to Thanh for the wonderful prize. Congratulations to all the other winners in all categories. Thanks to the entire forum really for making this unique place what it is.

by **Killakoala** on Sat Dec 10, 2005 8:09 am

Just stringing a few words together does not do justice to the thanks i want to convey to all involved that made the night such a great success.

An enormous thankyou to all those who contributed to the fantastic prizes offered last night and another enormous thankyou to those who did the organising. It was a very enjoyable evening.

Thankyou to ALL forum members who make this place what it is, a great place to meet, greet and do photography amongst really nice people. For me, it's become a second home.

Thankyou.

by **ozczecho** on Sat Dec 10, 2005 8:20 am

Yep well done placegetters as well as all the people who entered the comp. Also thanks to the site admins, MHD for running the comp and ofcourse the generous "sponsors"...

Merry Xmas to you all.

by **Potatis** on Sat Dec 10, 2005 8:56 am

Thanks to Thanh and Poon for donating such incredible prizes for the Challenge. Thanks once again to Scott for all his time running the challenge. Congratulations to all winners, and all who entered. What a great way to learn photography.

The dinner was excellent last night, it was great to see everyone. I had a great time. Sooo many prizes! How many people won the lucky door prize? I know I did, and several others on my table. :lol:

I'd like to echo what Killakoala said in his last paragraph. My sentiments exactly.

Well done to all who placed in the comp. Big thanks to all the people who make this place what it is. Its a true pleasure to be a member on this forum.

And to you too Mark. You received a special commendation (what Leigh so cavlierly referred to as Best Of The Rest) award (and a prize courtesy of Birddog).

Congratulations to all who won, organised and attended. This dinner was the culmination of a great 12 months in the life of this community and I, for one, look forward to the next year.

by **Manta** on Sat Dec 10, 2005 5:47 pm

Congratualtions to everyone - winners, contributors, organisers and participants at all levels. What a fabulous way to cap off a truly stellar year for the forum. Here's to an even more productive, entertaining, supportive and fun year in 2006.

Thanks Peter, and of course thanks Birddog for your tremendous support. Quite a surprise and a thrill to get the call last night (the background noise was intense so I think everyone was having a great time). Very greatly appreciated

Wayne. We might introduce a new rule - no prize if you aren't at the dinner. Then this time we could have kept a few of the (well deserved) goodies to divy up at the dinner :wink:

Fine by me Thanh but I reckon I'll need 12 months to put my own red wine-induced hangover behind me. Serves me right for drinking cheap stuff!
