As I worked my way throughout the entries it seemed that we would have a clear 1st & 2nd, but a multiple way tie for 3rd, but this all changed as I got closer to the end.
“The Most Australian Picture Possible’ was a great & potentially broad topic but has attracted a range of entries that are of little surprise considering the interests that have brought folk to this forum in the first place. A forum for city dwelling chess fanatics would doublessly have attracted very different interpretations. Ourinterpretation could largely be summarised as ‘the great outdoors’. Whilst this fits well for a country where the outdoors is vast, attractive & accessible, it would be far less likely to have such prominence in most other countries. It is a particularly Australian thing & thus very fitting for our competition topic. It speaks as much of our lifestyle as it does of the specific locations.
I did not fail to notice howeverthat one of our newest Australians, & the chooser of the topic - ‘Irish’ winner of last month’s comp, did not let us know what he considers to be the ‘most australian’. Tsk tsk. ;)
Ok your votes are in & we have 3 clear winners.
In first place with his late but first entry & 18 votes is ‘ozjeff’ with his lovely rural scene taken at Duck Creek Rd, Qld.
http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum.../2014/08/2.jpg
In second place with 17 votes is ‘P4trol’ with his great composition at the Roper Bar crossing
http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum.../2014/08/3.jpg
In third place with 15 votes is ‘clubbyr8’ with his quirky leaning water tanks.
http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum.../2014/08/4.jpg
Guys, in order to place the winning pics like this in the ‘Winners post’ I needed to upload your pics to my Flickr account. I hope this is ok with you. If not please let me know & I’ll delete them & replace them in this post with a smaller ‘thumbnail attachment’.
Well done all, thanks for everyone’s participation . I look forward to receiving a PM from our winner ‘ozjeff’ with his choice of topic for our August comp as soon as possible.
well done peoples..great pics...
Some belters this month guys.
G'day old cock!Quote:

Congratulations Jeff! You came in late, and everyone liked what they saw.
It's time to reveal the secret to my pic. Mrs P4trol took it. I did however manoeuvre the mighty patrol into position though.
