Welcome back to the Picture of the Month Contest !

 

We need to say how much we all appreciate every one who participates in this contest, including all of you who simply enjoy the pictures.
Here we can take a short moment, to nominate and give recognition to the photographers and images you think have gone above and beyond on this forum. Pictures that awed and inspired you, deserve to be given credit and recognition.


Thank those who shared them in the Forums with a nomination. Whether they be artsy, creative, documented accomplishments, or just downright impressive, this is where we want you to recognize them. If you love it, post it here.

When you nominate an image please upload the image to this thread, tell us who took the picture, and where to find it. There's a wealth of quality pictures every month here, and many of us want to see them and recognize those behind the lens. Good luck to all of those involved. Nominations can be made from July 1st, until July 31st.

The voting poll will be put up July 31st, or August 1st, and remain open for 15 days. The Winner will be announced at the close of the poll.
Who knows, maybe you'll be nominated. Please remember to vote at the end of the month !



To Nominate a Picture:

1.The picture must be taken by a member of Mycotopia.net - no self nominations.

2. *(Rule adjustment to extended time frame)* 
Picture's must be posted to Mycotopia.net during the current contest month, or within the last 15 days of the month prior.


3. Please include the member's name, the picture to be nominated, and a link to the post where picture can be found

 

4. Please don't forget to vote at the end of the nomination period !!!

 

5. At contest end, a print of the winning photo can be obtained here as long as the owner is willing:  

 

Would you like to own a print of the winning POTM photo?

Nominating this beauty by pharmer. It stands to remind us of the lives lost fighting for freedom and a better life. It drove my imagination through a whole back scenario of loyalty, bravery, courage and the strength those men had to face down to abolish slavery. What a lot of people do not realize is that there were all races being subjected to a life of slavery at that time

That's not a photo I took. It was snagged off the web. I thought it was appropriate but I cant take credit for it, so no................ 

 

On another note, you guys slayed the nominations ! Most excellent.     :biggrin:
