So, the next questions isā€¦when is the next comp !!!
It does, i must say invoke more activity on the Forum to give everyone the impudous to strive for more better pictures.
i agree with Ian (and well done Ian and Co !) that it shows our world from a different perspective totally !.
If only half the muppets we encounter on our droning experiences were to see the results, maybe they would not be this negativity against our hobby/obsession !!
And i have met many of them Muppets on my travels !!

Hopefully it will be a bit more challenging that just looking on a hard drive.

I really enjoyed the 2018 Treasure Hunt Challenge but this last one had nothing more than looking at what you already have and deciding which one to post.
Just my honest opinion.

Thatā€™s a cracking pic, Rich, well worth the pain. (re post #44)

The Birthday competition was designed to give everyone a chance and not be biased towards those with more time, better equipment, location etc.

Donā€™t worry, there will be more treasure hunts coming up :wink:

Well, I donā€™t have that much time, I work 12 hour shifts :sleeping:
My equipment is no better than anyone elseā€™s :thinking:
And I donā€™t see my location better than anyone elseā€™s if Iā€™m honest.
What I meant was it might have been more of a challenge to get out and take some photos rather than just search through what they already had thatā€™s all :neutral_face:
Having some sort of challenge is the only thing keeping me interested and not selling most of my equipment at the moment thatā€™s all.
It was as much as I could do to find enough arsed to get out yesterday but Iā€™m glad I did in the end.
Just saying :neutral_face:

Thanks Peter!

It was bloody cold :rofl:
