I've seen a few calendar worthy photos in the last few days.
Any of them would be an easy victory in here if a few more folks would just post.

I do wish the participation was little higher. Thanks for those who submitted.

Standoff between two partial shots.

JSumm's Caly 3.5 is the winner.

Great job everyone pictures were great ! I honestly don’t know if this thread should continue with lack of participation of other members on the Forum . This is not a diss towards anyone I just think there should be an honest discussion . I can go either way . MG2

I think keeping it active on the first page helps. Maybe dropping some messages on some of the pic threads as reminders. I'd hate to see it go bye bye. It has been around since 2014. I am sure it has gone up and down with participation similar to the forum. I think just keeping it alive will gather more interest.

I also think reminding people it is for fun and obviously very informal. I only have a phone camera and no nothing about photography, but I like capturing shots outdoors while doing what I enjoy. It's fun and anyone can do it.

I think these are very good points and I also would like to continue . I really as have said before my entries are filler compared to many shots entered . I do it mainly for fun , and nice to use one’s imagination creating a shot . The great part about the contest is having a different judge every week , I find that refreshing . I’m in Jeff . MG2

OK, so I'm currently limited in my choice of background / scenery, but in the interest of keeping this going, I'll post. Plus, I posted the "Phone or camera" post here (and the thread in Off-Topic); and got a friendly challenge from RevMike, so I figured I'd post something.

I'm still working on getting good photos with my phone; took this while waiting on poke nachos at a food truck.

So...

Wow - that's big.

I'm going to have to learn how to resize and crop as well, I suppose - new at editing on my phone as well...
