One vote for me again this month and that goes to APB - love the colours and the vignetting very nice photo. Clyde was a very close second but thought APB just edged it this month. Some great photos overall this month.

Love apb's photo! Yours was good too though!One vote for me again this month and that goes to APB - love the colours and the vignetting very nice photo. Clyde was a very close second but thought APB just edged it this month. Some great photos overall this month.
It is all related to the sensor size as well, so if you took your 50mm lens from a 35mm camera and put it on a typical dSLR where it would behave a bit like a lens around 70mm as only part of the image is projected onto the sensor.
7mm on a compact camera with its tiny sensor will probably have a similar field of view to a 30mm lens on a 35mm camera.
My vote has gone to 'errant', I love the glare of that blinding sun, I love the vertical lines of the 'bridge wires' and the horizontal skyscraper horizon. The fact that it's taken from a moving car window hasn't been hidden and I feel that it actually enhances it.
This month, for me and many others, has been a 'time and place opportunity' and there are many beautiful shots, I had decided to get the contrast of the sun with man made things, rather than the beauty of the planet. As always 'every picture tells a story' and I feel that errants entry tells it as it is - the sun is being 'cut up by man'.
I really liked your entry for similar reasons. Hadn't really considered before how well contrasting sun / landscapes with man-made objects works so well, definitely been my main learning from this month's theme.
3 Votes from me this month:
APB - Great shot, I think you def had an advantage over most of the rest of us due to your location
Chinamackem - Love this, as Spavin said the contrast of natural sun and manmade objects really gives a sense of the environment that the shot was taken in.
Peachbum - I'm a sucker for shots of stuff against a deep blue sky very nice.
Looking back now I would also have cast a vote for Errent for the same reasons as Chinammackem although in contrast i think the reflection from the window did take a little away from the shot for me. However, nice shot mate.
Am just hoping no one chooses any winter themes in the run up to christmas
I'll forego the vote for the lovely compliment. :-D:-D. Thank you!Intended to vote for peachbum too, but the 2 threads confused me
If she manages to pull another 15 votes out of the bag, by rights she has an extra one
Her stuff is criminally underrated
Well done mate, worthy winner.....wish I'd never voted for you now
