    April photo of the month contest

    We are trying out a monthly photo contest to see how it goes.

    This month's theme KILTS IN SPRING. This means there has to be some relationship between the kilt and the season. The rest is up to you.

    Post only photos here. The moderators do not want to have to dig through a lot of unnecessary posts. So any posts that say "I like that" or do not contain a picture will be removed

    The thread will be locked down on April 30th. The Forum Moderators and Forum Advocates will be the jury to determine which picture is the "Photo of the Month" and will post same as soon as they have finished their deliberations.

    Steve will contribute a silk dandelion to the winner.

    Good luck.

    Brian & the Forum Moderators

    I was asked to resubmit my photos as single images, rather than the collage. So here we go again...!
