The Mod Staff has taken the liking to a wallpaper photo contest - You have to the 24th of each month to submit (no more than 10) photos YOU THINK best desribe THAT months issue - we are starting here NOW with OCTOBER - should be FUN, lots of photo opertunities to take there - from Wintering to Halloween :)

Your photos are there as public domain - this forum will be a depository for SEASONAL WALLPAPER IMAGES - a neat source for calendars from your printers too :) In a few months, we'll have hundreds of great wallpaper images to be proud of :)

Note - the Moderators Judge the top 5 images - (they will be named by REPLY NUMBER #) and Membername - then YOU the MEMBERS choose the WINNER from the top 5 list!!!! That should be cool - there are no prices, except you win THAT MONTHS OCTOBER CALENDAR page if we put together a calendar of best photos!!

Are these to be beekeeping related photos only?

beemaster · « **Reply #2 on:** September 07, 2007, 03:28:38 pm »

I must have added that to a different post - I made 3 posts, but ABSOLUTELY ANY IMAGE (for examplle Pumkins and leaves for October) is PERFECTLY FINE. It is ON ALL TOPICS each month.

John, beautiful, what a wonderful idea. Cindi

TwT · « **Reply #5 on:** September 12, 2007, 06:20:37 am »

we can start a thread for each months pic's after time runs out we can lock the thread, but maybe john might want to figure how he might can tie in a poll before the thread is started, always go back and edit the poll by adding choices then, shoot i dont know was just thinking out load.

Mici and Konasdad, beautiful shots!!! Konasdad, is that the picture that you posted before on the forum? I remember it because I thought that your pooch looked so beautiful in that lovely field, what a piece of wallpaper that would make for sure? Have a great life and best of this day. Cindi

SO far I think I like Mici's Country lane. Looks like a great place to live and relax.

About the firsts photos sent by Mici and Konasdad.
Both are touching the perfection and the apple will remain in the tree.
The apple for the â€œbestâ€: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_of_Discord

The Mici forest, where more of the trees are located on the upper right corner is similar to Las Lanzas by Velazquezâ€¦to me. Not sure if I have artistic sensibility, but looking that pictures I am focused in the number of trees and number of lanzas.

http://www.safran-arts.com/42day/art/art4aug/velasqez/breda.html

The KonasdasÂ´s dog brought at my mind â€œLas Meninasâ€ by Velasquez, again, the big dog communicates tranquility and human warmth. Probably both dogs are SocratesÂ´reincarnation.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Las_Meninas

About the last photo by Miciâ€¦.Mici, have not you a table to work more comfortable? :-D

Abejaruco, what a great picture of your pooch running along, man can he go like the wind!!! Have a wonderful day, beautiful life. Cindi

Here are some turkeys in the food plot by the creek at my house.

When I got back from atlanta I got this one off my game camera by the house.

I watched on tv a Spanish photo selected by the NASA for the calendar. The moon and venus in conjunction with a castle of Cordoba. (See february month).

The calendar is nice, sublime. We can try a good calendar too.

Dallas, I'm ashamed of you, game camera, come on I thought you really went hunting not spying!!! :-D :-D :-D :-D

I guess ted was right, you really are 007 aren't you. Now I'm afraid to go to sleep. :-D

reinbeau · « **Reply #23 on:** November 24, 2007, 12:01:45 pm »

Dallas, Greg (Woodchopper) just bought a game camera from the newly opened Bass Pro Shops in Foxboro, MA (well, we had to buy something to justify the drive, right? :-P) I can't wait to see if we 'catch' anything!

Ann, where is Lebannon, ME (I don't know what the ME stands for), what is your time? We are pacific, I know we are three hours earlier than say, Toronto, Canada? Just curious. Have a greatest of days. Cindi

Lebanon, Maine is in very southwestern Maine, just over the New Hampshire border. But that isn't our fulltime residence (much to Greg's dismay). We live in Hanson, Mass, which is 26 miles or so south of Boston (but not on the Cape!). We're in the Eastern time zone. I think you're three hours behind us (it's 3:10 pm right now, and Foxclocks tells me it's 12:10 in LA, which is the same time zone as you, I believe).

11:00 A.M., the sun was shining low on the southern horizon, mist coming up from the deep and dark ravine. The picture was taken looking from my front porch, towards this deep dark ravine. Have a wonderful and beautiful day. Cindi

What happened to the December contest??? Do we just post here?

Cindi · « **Reply #29 on:** December 12, 2007, 08:53:48 am »

Annettte, no not in this thread. Go to the main forum page (you know, push the "home" button beside the navigation buttons in the forum), and there you will see the "submit your favourite wallpaper sized photos contest forum, go there and you will see October, November and December's thread, that is where you post the pictures. Do you have some more of the beauties like you already showed us? Beautiful, look at the one that Greg sent into the December contest, look at the waterfall one, that is a piece of beauty for sure, that is wallpaper worthy, definitely.

I know I was having a little difficulty figuring out where to put the photos too, but that is how it is done. Kind of a little bit clumbsy sometimes around here (me), I have to put my misty morning picture in the December contest. By the way, congrats on winning the November contest, your pictures were something to behold, and you say that I live in a beautiful place, hee, hee, look at where you live, your pictures were absolutely breathtaking, and I wish I was there.....Have a great and wonderful day, girl. Cindi

Cindi · « **Reply #30 on:** December 12, 2007, 09:08:19 am »

I meant to make a comment about the low number of voters on the wallpaper contest forum. October only had about 15 and November only about 21. There must be hundreds of people that look at these pictures, I know there are hundreds of members. Come on....let's make this contest more fun, put in your votes on the pictures. It only takes a moment to push one of the buttons to cast the vote :) :) :) There are some beautiful pictures coming on in this photo gallery, yea!!!! Have a beautiful and wonderful day, Cindi

P.S. Can guests cast votes? Probably not eh? Curiosity never got this cat. C.

pdmattox · « **Reply #31 on:** December 12, 2007, 10:31:45 am »

I'm with Cindi, it does not take long to vote and no one will know who voted for who. Only registered members can vote or submit pictures though.

Cindi · « **Reply #32 on:** December 12, 2007, 11:02:37 am »

Dallas, I think as a Moderator of the forum, create some kind of "locked" topic that explains the importance of members casting a vote for the pictures on the wallpaper thread. I think that that would help everyone to spend that extra 5 seconds to cast this vote. Maybe everyone else thinks that everyone else cast a vote and their vote is not important......check it out. Have a wonderful and great day, love our life we're livin'. Cindi

The only luck I have had getting pictures to this site is to resize them really small before trying. I hope you become successful because I really like pictures.
Good luck
