>>> August Photo Contest Preliminaries - Poll 2 Closed <<<

Last edited Fri Aug 26, 2016, 02:56 PM - Edit history (2)

Thanks all for voting! I will post the Final Poll later today!

The theme for the August Photo Contest is "Keeping It Cool". Something a lot of us try to do during August but could be interpreted in a large variety of ways. And you will find a large variety here!

Please vote for your favorite in each of the three preliminary rounds. Voting will be open for 3 days. The 3 thread winners plus the next 5 highest vote recipients will move to the final round of 8.

Please feel free to comment! Photographers love them!

I went through and removed the 1.1.1 stuff from the URLS of the photobucket pictures. I had earlier just copied the direct urls of the pictures and I can see all the pictures, I'm totally mystified where the error was!
I'm sorry!

I asked earlier if I could extend the poll length because of a delay getting the photos up without losing the results. I didn't get any replies so I'll just continue to the finals and start them a little early.
