Sorry to been around much of late, so didnt even get chance to enter myself!

Voting in the usual way.

Voting ends 8.00 pm Thursday night.

5pts - Echo, Cotswold Winterscape
4pts - Devildog - Snow in those Clouds
3pts - CharlesW - Snow and Water
2pts - SimonC - Canal Linkaway
1pt - Suresn - One Winters Day

5pts - Bicco - Rooftop Sunrise. I like the winter sky and the abstract feel.
4 pts - Echo - Cotswold Winterscape. Nice crisp image of a winter activity.
3 pts - pwhittle - York, yesterday. Nice composition, again with an abstract feel to it.
2 pts - Suresh - One Winter's Day. It looks cold doesn't it.
1 pt - Devildog - Minus 5 at Loch Garten. Again it conveys the cold and makes best use of the dismal light levels in this part of Scotland at this time of year.

5 points - Suresh - One Winters Day
4 points - Echo - Cotswold Winterscape
3 points - Devildog - Minus 5 at Loch Garten
2 points - Bicco - Rootop Sunrise
1 point - kbsub - Elk @ Banff (*)

0 points - me for not managing anything worth entering. :D

* - I think kbsub should be handicapped for the purposes of this competition for being somewhere with an actual winter - so my vote must put him on -9 points... here we've just had rain slightly cooler than that we get in summer :p ;)

4pts - CharlesW - Glacier de Gébroulaz, where's me ski boots?:wonder:

Snow and water - CharlesW - 3 points

ps - For me, Echo's Cotswold shot was the most stand out of all the entries, however for me it didn't convey the theme particularly strongly.

5 - Mr Scoob - Sunlight & Rain
4 - ksub - Elk @ Banff
3 - Echo - Cotswold Winterscape
2 - Suresh - One Winters Day
1 - Devil Dog - There's Snow in those clouds

All great shots again, but the above stand out for me, difficult in allocating the points between them tbh

Well done everyone

and a big -100 points for me not even taking one shot this last month of anything at all

5 points Cotswold winterscape Echo

4 points There's snow in those clouds Devildog

3 points Snow and Water Charles W

2 points One winter's day Suresh

1 point Rooftop Sunrise Bicco


And that concludes the voting from a very cold Canada (-30 tonight with a wind Chill of -44 :eek: )So stop moaning you have no snow :D And yes I really should have done better with my entries, I was rubbing my hands when I saw the theme for the comp but I just couldn't get out when the sun was out and the light was right. Anyway well done all :thumb:

Lots of great pics, sorry if I didn't vote for you, too many to choose from :)

5 - Devildog, There's snow in those clouds - quite sure of that too!
4 - Mr Scoob, Sunlight and Rain - Like it. Looks quite surreal
3 - Echo, Cotswold winterscape - Best pic in the comp. Great 'boke', but doesn't capture the theme for me
