POTW 23 July 2013

Postby aim54x on Tue Jul 23, 2013 4:53 pm

I didn't forget, and I have to admit that I have been lurking a fair bit lately. Knowing that it was my turn on the roster coming up I have been keeping an eye out, and quite frankly the problem of selecting a winner is now quite the opposite of what it used to be, there simply are not that many choices. I have dug deep this week to find something that hasn't already won and something I thought was deserving of being the POTW.

Congrats Matt K for a back to back award....I love the lines, reflections and that glow

Matt

I know you'll disagree with me, but I'd like this rotated clockwise to be straigther. For me the angles detract from what is an otherwise fine image.
