there have been more votes this month than a lot of other months, maybe some people find it too hard to pick a favourite?  :) I know this month was very hard for me to choose a favourite!

I had to vote to see how it was going. Wasn't sure on voting etiquette on here so played it safe not voting for my own. Not that I would vote for myself but wanted to see how it was going. Tight competition some deadly pics.

Congratulations Lads great photos.  I cant complain about second place on my first attempt.  ;D 

Where and when were these taken? 

Liam got my vote for the outdoors activity aspect to it.  Yes Mournemans is an outdoors shot and as good a shot as I have seen in a long time but I was thinking outdoors activity but that was were the difficulty lay as it was freestyle tough choice.  Well done both.

Mine was taken at the maritime festival on the belfast docks in 2006.  I had to look back at when I did take this and it just shocked me.  Feels like the other day.
The Balloon glow was great. They fired them up to the beat of a song.  With different balloons being lit at different points of the song.  Fireworks at the end made it a great sight. 

Some other photos from that day/night.

There goes my theory at it not being an outdoors activity photo.  Class shot well worthy of the win.

I voted based on interpretation of the theme rather than the best technical or most stunning photo, so for me it had to be hud. Captured the theme perfectly.

My photo was taken while kayaking round Milford Sound, New Zealand. Having a lifelong fascination with penguins that photo was taken moments before I had my first ever meeting with a wild penguin. Kayaking with penguins, now that is a memory that will stay with me for life :-)
