Thanks Chris, I knew my two curlews wouldn’t really compete with the landscapes but it is one of my favourite photos from a recent hike on Hinchinbrook Island so I put it up anyway, despite having some nice landscape shots that I could have submitted. I don’t even vote for my own photos so am happy to get two votes! Haha I think we will see a wider range of interesting shots with the new non-landscape category.

Thankyou.
Yes I agree the new format is a great idea! More comps means more stunning pictures!! I also liked the format of this one being in numbers so noone knew where the photos were from....

Well done ILUV

But with a title like that some people will still not know where you were.
Mt Owen perhaps?

hahaha how true Eggs.... Yes Mt Owen it is. The "Master" is our own Stu

Master?
Master of the 'point and shoot' is about all mate & even that is stretching things
Nice shot Mark, Mt Owen was a surprise walk wasn't it. I didn't expect such good views & the craggy mists just added to the ambiance on this day.
