August '17 Photo Comp - CAMPFIRE

[TPC]

This month's topic was chosen by our July winner Boinzo

Campfire- Message from Boizo: "So, let's see pictures of everyone's best camp fires in the best places. I think it's a topic everyone should be able to enter and I can't wait to see all the pics."
I agree with Boinzo, everybody should have campfire pics so lets get those entries in and please give a brief description of where the photo was taken.


Remember to follow the rules shown in pink below.


Regards
TPC

You like to do the fire chimney too, we are always on the lookout for hollow logs for this.

What a beauty, I use hollow logs cut to about 300 mm for firestarters , just have an air gap underneath and load with scrap sticks and bark etc , keep adding and you get a cooker with just using scrap stuff that no one else seems to want .

I reckon I know, but it's Bob's question to answer!

Yeah it is Wide Beach on Ulupna Island. I told Throbbinhood it was near Tocumwal.
Have been meaning to advise him the correct location.

Just a few more days to get your entries in folks, the comp will close for entries 7PM SA time on Monday 28th, voting will close 7PM SA time on Wednesday 30th.
There are some great photos but I am sure we can get a few more so those that have not entered make sure you dig through your photos to find some to put up or you could always light a camp fire in your backyard and snap a few photos.
