Thanks a lot Si!

I didn't realise that 'Glass' would be a re-run! I have been hanging out on the forum for a while, but I think this theme was before that time. I hope 4 years is a long enough gap for those 'vets' out there who have been supporting the AVF Photocomp for so long (like Zone) not to mind having another shot at it, and yes, maybe Zone can top the poll once again!

So we are talking about texture, distortion, colour, reflections, difraction and probably more glass properties that I can think of right now. I hope you enjoy looking through your 'glass' for inspiration!

Thanks to all!

Congratulations Butch, and an excellent choice of theme - lots of possibilities there..

Congratulations, a well deserved win!

Great theme too, I need to get my thinking cap on!

Some images seem to be missing, or have they been disallowed?

It's a work in progress mate!

I'm back on with it now

Guys

I'm away until the 28th so the comp won't close till then, the voting will take place as soon as possible after and may possibly close late on the 1st!

Hi All due to lack of inspiration dont think I will be getting an entry in this month but am not too dissappointed looking at the high standard of entries this month. Good luck and may the best pic win.
