Blimey, hard to choose. Is it just one vote each? Are you allowed to vote for your own pic? (just asking - Iām not that arrogant!)

A vote for the fox to encourage him in the hope that whilst taking more photographs he backs up too far and falls off the planet.

I shall amuse myself at Christmas taking photos, we have an unhurried holiday for a change, so it would be nice to be up walking/cycling to catch some sunrises/sunsets. So far we have a good impression of the K&A Canal, and of West Berkshire and eastern Wiltshire.

It is tricky to vote just for the picture without being influenced by personal attitudes regarding the candidate! That is so true I want to vote for nearly all of them.... How long have I got to ponder?

It is tricky to vote just for the picture without being influenced by personal attitudes regarding the candidate! I won't be voting for my own, out of principle. One way to judge a photo is to imagine it's hanging in an art gallery - would you just glance and keep walking by, or is there something to it that makes you stop? You see the photos in the art gallery shop - are you inclined to buy one or more? Where would you hang it? In your living room, in the car garage, in your boat, in the toilet? If these photos were made into Christmas cards, would you buy a pack of ten (of the same photo) to send to your friends and relatives?

Hard to chose .... there are several that I think are really good ..... I also voted fairly early so as not to be influenced by anything but the pictures themselves.
