oh gee, my current cameras are USELESS at night shots... I guess I am going to sit this one out, or if the FZ28 is released before competition's end, I'll see how I go. Or I could use my old Minolta SRT303b with a fast film

Apparently my username is already taken?

I haven't registered this one.

[matthewlesh]

Just signed up.. sounds cool.

My only issue is that i don't have a low light lens.. so the night photos i have a reasonable terrible. Anyway i'll try.

[gilligan911]

No need for a "low light" lens - a tripod and long exposure are all you will need....

[Goodbye]

All those waiting to have their registrations activated have had that done, and I've deleted Reubania's photo as per request

Foot tapping...

Anyone who still ignores all the red text, the flashing lights, and the image in the opening post, and still puts their actual full name in the registration form will not have their account activated, so you will need to register again if you did this.

Huh? This years winners are:

Comp 1 : gilligan911
Comp 2 : Myself
Comp 3 : swoffa
Comp 4 : Myself
Comp 5 : Myself
Comp 6 : Goodbye

Goodbye does an excellent job of running these photo comps and he also has other things to do and we all owe him a beer for doing such a good job!

Also how could he rig it? Everyone on the forum here votes?

[Madone]

The question wasn't asked with malice, it was asked as a question...

I have tried to enter pics, but as yet my rego hasn't been activated, despite it meeting all the criteria etc...

Lot's of rules on how to enter etc too. Maybe I won't bother.
