Welcome back to the Picture of the Month Contest !

 

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, 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 copy the specific post location 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 February 1st, until February 28th.

The voting poll will be put up February 28th, or March 1st, and remain open for 15 days. The votes will be counted, and the winner  will be announced at the close of the poll.
Who knows, maybe you'll be nominated.



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 specific post where picture can be found


4. Please don't forget to vote for your favorite image at the end of the month!

Hell yeah this place consistently has world class photography going on.....and the more participation that happens month to month here in these threads the more difficult the choices are....

 

I bitch about it, which to choose for, but I love it too so...... :biggrin:

 

There is indeed quite the choice this month and it ain't over yet.....

Never an easy choice, I like to go with a gut feeling decision rather than too much contemplation. It feels more instinctual or natural or something like that

 

If that makes any sense, time for another bag from the volcano
