    :) It is so nice to see new people entering, always nice to have fresh ideas on a theme.. The more the merrier..:)

    :D This month is going to be very very difficult, as always, to decide on just three as there are so many superb photos to choose from!!!     s00k:D

    [​IMG]Here is a link to this months photos to help you decide..

    Oh dear this is really rather difficult but here goes -

    1 - Shiney - Autumnal Reflections 1. A lovely autumnal scene with an astonishing depth to it. Nicely exposed and composed

    2 - Kathy3 - Sun's Rays I thought this was quite simply a beautiful scene with the warm glow from the low sun reflecting on the snow

    3 - Clematis - (no title, but The Maldives) A gorgeous seascape. But please Clematis try to post at full size - I nearly missed out on viewing your lovely photo

    1st The Last Rose - Dave W - fully fits in with the brief of reflections, both the idea and the actuality, conveyed stillness and calm.

    2nd-Grass admiring its reflection-Shiney- again fits the brief in both ways, grass admiring itself and almost thinking about what has passed this year, fitting in with it being Novembers comp.

    3rd-the one without a title by Clematis-again one that went a step further than just taking a pic of a reflection, with good composition and the sense of distance in it conveyed calm tranquility to me at least.
