Fantastic images from 5 different states, really hard to pick this one, oh for a Ningaloo sunset, sigh...

Terrific shots again this month everyone, I liked all of them. Congrats Chopper that's a very inspiring image :) ; eggs really enjoyed yours also and a bit surprised it didn't get more votes.

Nice shot Chopper I was torn between that and johnw's which got the gong in the end, probably because I'd been there :roll:
I was soooo tempted to vote for the Ningaloo shot, in the depths of a Tassie winter that is a place I used to escape to as a grommet surfer, and it is heaven on a 7' stick :wink:
Really miss WA in August.....

A clarification - he means Western Australia, not Western Arthurs... I don't think I would miss Western Arthurs in August, the snow in September was enough for me to bail a day early.

Yes, some nice photos as usual!
