Struggled to come up with a new subject, so rather than picking something obscure decided to go back to where the comp began to one of my favourite subjects, and so this weeks subject is Lochs
Lochain nan Cnaimh
So far we've had:
A solitary Graham
A Sunrise or Sunset
Autumn
BAD DOSS

DESCENDING
Dodgy bridges
Fashion Victim!!!
Flora and Fauna
Food
Glen Affric
Glen Shiel
GLENS and VALLEYS
I walked over where!!!???
Island Hills
Layers
Loch Leven
Lochs
Look what I can see
Looking into the sun
Memories of summer
My Motivation
Reflections or water effects
Ridges
Rivers
Rock
Rock Shapes
Scrambling

Shadows
Sheep
Silhouettes
Skye
Solitude
Spring
Summit Cairns or Trig Points
Summit Poses
The Buachaille
The Cairngorms
The Epitaph of Winter 09-10
The far north
The Forge (An Teallach)
The graceful cornice
The Hand of Man
Three
Torridon
Trees
Waterfalls
Wee hill
Wet
What got you hooked?
Winter
You dont see that very often
Your Best in the last 12 months
Your Favourite Hill
Photo Contest Rules
One photo per person to be posted before 1300hrs Sunday. When posting your photo, please quote the previous post then add your photo to it (this keeps all the photos together in one string). Deviation will be punished.
QUITE OLD NEW RULE - Please edit the photos out of your entry after someone else has quoted them. This new rule will hopefully keep things tidier.
Please add your name/nickname to your photo
In the event of anyone posting more than 1 photo, their first photo should be the only one considered when voting. They should be roundly castigated by all and sundry, then thrown into the pond. Their exit will be the following week's topic.
Votes to be cast between 1300hrs Sunday and 1900hrs Tuesday evening.
To vote you award:
5 pts to the best photo
4 pts to second
3 pts third
2 pts fourth
1 pt- fifth
In the event of a tie, then all the single point votes will be subtracted from the joint winners' totals, after which if it's still a tie, then all the 2 point votes will be subtracted, and so on. In the unlikely event it's still a tie when the 3's and 4's points have been subtracted, then the previous winner posts again. Both tied contestants will be bound together and forced to do a 3-legged ascent of Sgurr nan Gillean naked.
After 1900hrs Tuesday evening the winner starts a new thread titled (Photo Contest - their theme), then copies these rules and adds their photo to it to start the next round.
PLEASE NOTE The winner who posts his/her photo(s) is a non-competitor in the round, but can of course vote.

Nice photo Simon. You've confirmed the practicality of a recent idea for a wild camp.

You going to camp up by Lochan Uaine? A steep scrambel up to the loch or a steep one down. Either way. a steep scramble!
Though 2 guys I met on Angel's Point had come up via the loachan from the Lairig Ghru. |
