October Competition Voting Here

Well, it's the end of the October competition as far as entries are concerned, just got to get the voting over with now to decide the winner.

Obviously the one with the most votes wins. The poll will close on the 31st.

Good Luck everyone!

The poll options are links to the submission where a brief description of the photo can also be seen. Please read the narrative as some of the pictures won't make sense without it

Yes, well done Steve. A much better voting system this month - only took me 5 mins to look at all the entries and vote for the best.

Excellent work there people - somehow I've managed to let this whole month's competetion pass me by - think I must have been asleep!!

Anyway, my final vote went to Boink! - can't quite put my finger on why I like it so much.

Special note also to Zone (er, how close was the camera to the gas!?!?) and to itcosthowmuch for his cool effect.

Think there may be a bug in your system though Steve, it is currently showing no votes for my entry. This can't be right, surely!!

A bit too close mate, I actually thought I may have damaged the lens at one point as it was very hot

Went for the MINI, nice shot and I'm car mad. I like the way you get a little bit of a bar even if you get no votes .

Looking forward to having a go next month
