February Contest Info!

As they say, watch this space!

I have volunteered to take over hosting the February contest. As soon as I get a theme from the winner of the January contest (Walleye) I'll post a timeline and then a Submissions thread will be opened.

So...Watch this space!

And you didn't have to watch for long!

On edit:

Walleye has given us a Valentine's theme, which is
“now that is love“. Valentine’s. Any photo depicting love.
As Host, I'm going to expand the topic to include love of any kind--not necessarily romantic--and not limited to humans. We anthropomorphize love all the time, so why not for this theme?

Here's the timeline: Submissions will open next Saturday, February 10th and remain open until February 17th, unless we have 30 entries prior to the 17th. Preliminaries will run from Feb 18-21 and Finals will run from February 21-24, subject to starting earlier if all the entry spots are filled prior to the 17th.

Love is in the air!

Pansies and Hellebores and Crocus, oh my!
