Good luck everybody! I'm really looking forward to running this one.

9. I'm in
Have been away at a conference and was so excited to see this tonight. Mine is a based on an era that was truly black and white in the minds of the people that ruled then. Black and White photo for a Black and White era under King Henry the 8th. Sacked abbey it is.

16. I was wondering if we need 30 entrees.
Seems like we get to 24 and the entrees crash.
Why not have three rounds of 8 in the semis and go with that? Just wondering. |

17. Thanks for the suggestion, but it's too late!
We're up to 25 entries. Actually, I wouldn't want to part with tradition, since it's my first time running the contest.
Thanks! |

28. I just went through five shots
before settling on a second entry. Birds or flowers? Flowers or birds? Or a fisherman? I'm surprised the submissions didn't close while I was vacillating between choices!

29. I know! It's crazy.
I plan on posting a thread after the contest is over showing some of my other possible entries. I have too many of them.
