**Summer Seasonal Photography Contest First Round of Voting Thread One**

VOTING IS NOW CLOSED

Dear DU.
We have spent the last two weeks submitting images for the Summer Seasonal photography competition and the results or some wondrous compositions are now available for you to vote for the one you feel most splendid.

Please visit the other two threads below and vote for your favourite there also.

Can I please add that a significant number of pictures have been posted by members of this community who have never entered a competition before and I KNOW you want to encourage them by voting even if you think you cannot choose between the marvels on offer.

So get voting chaps and chappettes... the first round of voting will close on Thursday 1700 GMT (cause it is all about me:chuckle
