Picture of the Week 30.11.10

Postby Geoff on Tue Nov 30, 2010 10:01 pm

I've been a little absent from the forum of late (I don't think I've been the only one) but I do try and get here to make my selection for POTW. Before I do though, I'd like to publically acknowledge the continuued efforts that some of our members have been making to keep the forum 'going', these include but are not limited to:

Biggerry
Rooz
Aim54x
Surenj
Matt.K

I've been blaming a lack of time to get on here, but I'm not sure if that's the only reason, I'm not 100% sure what is? Anyway..I have digressed somewhat and without further ado, this week's POTW is awarded to the magical colours and vibrance that has been captured in this thread. Surenj has explained that he had to hurry somewhat to get this series but wow, it was worth it. All three images are strong, but I've selected this one as the winner:

Well done surenj! Round of applause for you sir!

Well done Suren. I immediately thought of POTW. This one picks itself. A nice big canvas (40") and this would make a splendid adornment to any wall. Congrats.
