Welcome BestUK photographers worship.gif This time, you should take a pic of a landscape. This means -

Landscape comprises the visible features of an area of land, including physical elements such as landforms, living elements of flora and fauna, abstract elements such as lighting and weather conditions, and human elements, for instance human activity or the built environment.

And the type of picture i'm looking for is something like these images here.

*Any size you like
*A maximum of two photos per member. You can change your mind and submit others as many times as you like within the timescale.
*Please take a photo specifically for this competition

Feel free to ask questions cos i've probably forgotten something as usual

Entries to me in personal message by Saturday 9pm

They certainly reaffirm my belief that you can go anywhere in the world, but you can never truly beat the British countryside.

Ok I'm just saying i'm not moaning I know its just a bit of fun so I'm just saying, but The comp was and I quote

QUOTE
living elements of flora and fauna, human elements,



And Flora and fauna is........
QUOTE
Flora and fauna refer to plant and wildlife, respectively. The indigenous plant and wildlife of a geographical region is often referred to as that region’s flora and fauna


And the photo that won had no Flora and fauna Chortle.gif Its a beach. great photo as soon as i seen it I knew it would win. anyway one of mine the one with the church didn't have fauna either blush2.gif

Scorpio
Sorry Dev, but the photos had to be of a landscape. Flora and fauna didnt have to be in it at all and just formed part of the definition
JonoF
Excellent Pic Babs, well done thumbup.gif

How and where did everyone take their photos then?

I climbed up the scaffolding to get onto the roof of my house to take mine. 2# one is west facing, 3# is east facing.
FBG

I nearly didn't enter it for these same reasons, but if you look there is a plant (bottom right corner Chortle.gif ) and there are people on it, trying to put their tent up delicious.gif

And the tide was nearly out so it's mostly land as in "Landscape"

Sorry for winning yet again, morning1.gif
Thanks to everyone that voted for mine, I loved them all....great pics thumbup.gif

I have to say Babylon did present the strongest Image I have always like the into the sun shot and it worked because of the water.
