December’15 /January ’16 Photo Comp - FLORA

[Winnie]

Thanks Winnie. I think I’ve sussed out that it’s a problem at Flickr’s ‘Australian end’. Others are reporting the same issues on Flickr’s help forum. Someone suggested they had been able to make things work using a VPN & connecting via an overseas server. I just tried the same & can see all of Jack’s photos now - (I guess he uses Flickr too?) as well as all the pics in the past winners thread.

Phew! At least all those photos have not been lost, will just have to hope Flickr get things sorted sometime soon.

I’ll wait a bit to see what happens before re-posting my deleted entries.

Ah, I use a VPN to access the American netflix website so that explains that!

Correct Cuppa, I use Flickr and I can see your old pictures.

No problem Cuppa, same thing happen to MR a long time ago too. Once they sort themselves out the pictures will re reference again.

Flickr seems to be working again now so I’ll re-post the entries I made previously. I’ll also take the opportunity to remind all that the comp is going right through to the end of January, so plenty of opportunity for everyone to take some pics of flora over the holiday period.

#1 Kapok. When at this stage it is a sign that much of the local fauna is reproducing. Taken in Kakadu.

#2 Rare(ish) Livingstonia Palms, prehistoric relics, these ones in a small gorge in Purnululu National park (Bungle Bungles)

I think this might be the same group of trees from a different angle.
This is not an entry and I will take it down after.
