Photo Competition - December 2012


Recommended Posts

For the final competition of 2012 we thought we'd make it as broad as possible: We just want to see your best caching photos of 2012. Pictures of great views, great people, great caches and great fun.

 

The rules for this month:

 

1) The photo must related to a specific UK cache (any type, including events), caching series or caching trip - please include a link to the cache or the GCcode.

2) The photo must have been taken during 2012.

3) Maximum of two photos per caching team or cacher.

4) A new thread is started each month, with the OP stating the rules.

5) The winner each month is decided by the winner from the previous month - the new winner starting the thread for the subsequent month. They may set a theme if they wish.

6) Follow the theme (if one has been set).

Fantastic a broad scope for pictures this month.

 

So I think I will start with what is my favourite picture of the year, which was taken during the Mega2012: Chapel Island Picnic event.

Then marmal & I done a fabulous series finishing off with Picnic Spot - Fawnsy's Funnies

I love that top one - reminds me of The Singing Butler. At least I think that's why I love it - not because of the thought of you, marmal, Brave Defender and Big Wolf sporting hairy legs and shorts for the day!

 

:laughing:

Well, you wanted a photo of Haggis Hunter, Brave Defender & Marmal with their shorts on. :P (Big Wolf didn't wait for us and was up front somewhere). (Chapel Island Picnic)

Here's a couple from this year that I like. Quite a few more and hard to choose just two! (so, I've added a third of the 12/12/12 event just for the joy of it.

We've just had a look through last month's selection... a good variety of caching moments from 2012.

 

We narrowed it down to 6 that we thought were particularly nice, then chatted about what we liked / didn't like so much about each one... Then decided that the winner should be the Lydford Locators' chilly canal and church scene.

 

Well done Lydford Locators!

Wow, we won! :-) Thanks for voting for our photo - it makes up for the DNF we had there on such a very cold morning.

Referee! Surely it doesn't count if it was during a DNF!!! :rolleyes:

 

T'is a great pic though. Amazing how still and reflective water can be, especially when its cold.

:)

Doesn't say you have to have Found the cache!

Good excuse for posting your DNF log, if you have a decent photo taken at the location... :D

Is the January competition going to be posted? Or am I being silly and can't see it?? :unsure:

 

It's now the 9th, so I vote that Haggis Hunter is appointed as the 'other person if necessary' to start the January competition.....

 

(6) The competition runs from the 1st of the month, until a date specified in the OP by the previous months winner. This should give sufficient time for the winner (or other person if necessary) to start the new thread.

Thank you for the vote of confidence...........

 

I think it should be the second-placed photographer. Mrs B, who would that be?

.........But I have to agree with the above that it should be the second placed photographer. :)
