Welcome to the April Photo Comp.
The theme for this round is:

Patience

The Timescale:

* Voting occurs for one week from midnight on the last day of April until midnight on the seventh of May.
* After voting has finished the winner chooses the next theme within a couple of days.
* Once the new theme has been chosen entries may be submitted until midnight on the last day of the month.

The Rules:

* Each user is allowed to submit ONE photo for consideration. You may change your submitted photo at any time up to the due date. Just send me a PM with your new entry.
* There is no maximum or minimum image size, we are not here to discriminate against hardware.
* Only very light editing is allowed. Adjustment of Levels, Colour Correction, Contrast, Sharpening and Cropping is allowed.
* This thread will be closed at the specified time (end of the month). No extra entries will be accepted, except under special circumstances.
* Entries breaking these rules will not be entered.
* The forum policy must be followed.
* If you wish to remain anonymous even after voting has finished, then please let me know when you are submitting your image.

The Process:

* Please keep the image size to less than 1.5Mb
* Go out and take a photo, fitting in the theme and rules.
* Post your entry to me by PM, I will host it and post it.
* When the due date passes, the entries thread will be closed, and a voting thread created to determine the favourite.
* You will not be able to vote for your own entry.

The Tips:

* Think laterally, not literally. Makes for an interesting piece.
* Try to make everyone think about what they're looking at.
* Do what YOU think is right. Art is very subjective. What's great to you, sucks to someone else, etc.
* Title your work, it will make your choices more obvious
* This is nothing serious, have fun while you're doing it.

Good luck.

I'm baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack (pveater - @custompc). Sad to see TMP go and as luck would have it this was my 1st photo comp entry this month. Cheers Dennis. At least its been moved here. Glad to see some familiar names guys!

So should we PM entries to you this round Oli?

Hehe, if you all want it to fail miserably then sure

I think Prof is the best for this round as he knows all the entrants.

If he doesn't want to continue next round then... I suppose it's up to someone to come forward as the next host

It's either you or a moderator, since they'll need to edit your OP.

Looks like you volunteered

I has an idea for this which isn't entirely unlike the idea I had that wasn't the same as the one HK did which she did before I did the one I didn't do, but hers was better anyway but there's nothing like it yet so maybe I should

Its been so long since I've picked up my camera, I doubt I can remember which way round to hold it. I do actually have some paid photography work coming up, which I really can't turn down as cash it tight at the moment. I'm just worried that the results might not be up to scratch.

Haven't got a scooby regarding competition ideas, and I probably don't have the time to figure it out. hopefully once my wonderful new driving school takes off, I'll have a bit more time on my hands to get involved with the competition again.

I had a brilliant idea for this when we were at the fish shop earlier, but I have absolutely no chance of getting it before the end of the month. Looks like I won't be taking part this month

Hmm... I nearly took part this month but it's just about identical to another of the entrants.

Which one??? If it's mine I can pull it and let you in
