December 2010 Photo Contest -- Holidays

Post by icvanstra »

Pick your favorite holiday for a theme and have fun!

The same simple rules:
- submit one photo
- you must have the rights to the photo
- voting will start at the end of the month ... or when I get it set up there after... :ds:

So, Eric, perhaps I missed it, but has last month's winner been announced?

Leih - I closed the thread for november and have not created the voting yet. ... a lot going on at work right now. After the voting is over, just click on the thread and the results are at the top. Madix was the winner last time - I'm having trouble getting that photo to show up well for the banner though...

So...when everyone get's their new camera break it out (don't break it) and snap some photo's of the pups!

I'm going to leave this months contest open a few days longer than normal so if anyone takes photo's of the "New Years" (or Hogmanay) they will have a chance to get it posted.

Tell us about yourself: Lifelong animal person- I professionally trained horses before my children were born. New to DS's, but not new to high drive working dogs. :) Currently have a 1 1/2 yr old DS, Koenig, and a 2 yr old English Pointer Sara. They are both rescues. Oh yes, I work at a multi species non-profit animal rescue, on Bainbridge Island, WA

Want to know anything else, just ask!

Aww, crap. I totally posted the wrong pic. Whoops. Can we delete my last post, and enter this one instead? I'm sorry!

Here are Koenig's thoughts on Christmas. Sorry, everyone!

Kelly, Isn't it easier for you to just edit your first post? You can then insert the picture you want, and not have doubles (which would just be confusing?)

Judith,

Everyone except admins/moderators have a limited amount of time to edit their posts.
