Thanks WSS and thanks again everyone who voted and no worries for those who didnt. This round of the competition was purely based on voting and there was no specific choices for who you actually voted for. Odd really, I guess the purpose was to get people to be aware of the competition but in reality these things end up being a popularity contest rather than about individual abilities.
I would like to think that my work stands up against the best the competition has to offer otherwise I wouldnt have bothered spending the significant amount it cost me to enter in the first place. I suppose in reality winning one of these prizes therefore doesnt prove anything as to my actual ability or the quality of my photographs but if nothing else it's made people on here and elsewhere aware of my work which is great for me.
The real test will be whether I get anywhere in the monthly awards and the overall grand prize which are purely decided by judges from select internatiol magazines, agencies and by photography experts.
ps sorry AFKA but I'll need to win the monthly to afford those leg extensions.

I voted for him.
Even though he ignores me when I'm in the Lib, I assume its because I'm with Plaaayer and RedarmySE7 ; )
