Contests

I'm pleased to announce the photo which won the tough competition for the best photo taken in 2018. I say "tough" because the runner-ups were just a whisker behind - and not withouth the reason.

So, please joins us in the below thread to congratulate Fred_S for his great achievement:

New episode in our long-lasting contest story has just appeared, having the word "touch" as the subject. As usual the task is simple (is it?) - explain the meaning of this word (be it a noun or a verb) with your pictures.

All rules are set out in the announcement thread, where you can also add your entries:

DPC #276 "Touch"

I have not been taking care of DPCs for a very long time so when it happened that I needed to post this announcement I opened the DPC Winner thread just to got amused by the winner photo. What an excellent piece of artwork. And the runner-up is no worse either - hard time choosing between the two. Outstanding!

It is real pleasure to announce results of this DPC - please feel free to join me and congratulate thos ewho made it:

We all must have some tools lingering somewhere in our house. Or maybe at work? Or possibly even seen out and about in the street. Show us your imagination and find some pictures of tools! BTW, try to be creative - no photographic tools please ;)

This time we have a nice subject for the DPC proposed by pegelli: "Pastoral Landscapes". It's a painting style that was very much used in the 19th century and focusses on fields, pastures and meadows - agrarian landscapes with or without domesticated animals. It's not the typical landscapes like mountains, forests, lakes and oceans. They can be in the picture but should not be the main subject.
So, if you have photos like that - jump right to the DPC thread:
