Wow! Can't believe I got EPZ POTW! Again! Thrilled! :-d https://www.ephotozine.com/ https://www.ephotozine.com/photo/long-tailed-tit-56113579 Long story behind this… That Wednesday when it snowed (2 weeks ago), my car battery died, so I had to go get a new one which took me until about 2pm meaning I...

Not been on the forum for ages, but just seen this Mike - thanks for putting it on here! :D The image that scored 16! in the November monthly comp. I believe the judge said, "I hate puffins because i broke my ankle whilst photographing them AND that bit at the bottom (defocussed grass) looks li...

Autumn.

Many thanks indeed Mike! Glad you enjoyed it.

I know they give up their time for the love of it etc. However, I think we can all agree that some judges undoubtabley are of a better stan...

I dont see anything wrong with pointing out errors on the forum, it isn't a personal dig, in this particular case it does seem to be the exact same Spitfire image, as far as I can see - no disrespect to the author, to whom I will mention again, I love this photograph. I do disagree with Gordon and P...
