Oh dear, my least favourite subject! I'll give it a go at some point though!

The subject has been changed to Animals to make it easier for everyone

Ah nice one Alex. I saw the thread over the weekend and was thinking how the hell am I going to get some decent pics of people

- Everyone I know is ugly, except for myself*

.

Animals is pretty good though, I actually got some good ones of animals last weekend, so good timing

*Disclaimer - I'm only joking, just encase the Mrs reads this!!!

I never used that pic of my robin in any comp, just popped it up for people to see in the photography section! So I should be good to enter it for the first time?

SPRAGGGGGGG

Sorry that is my cats name...but she takes a bad photo, sure I can hunt some animals down here though

(not literally, that would be mean). I too was having trouble thinking of a suitable, and willing subject, for 'people' especially seeing ive only just started taking pics....I'd be like 'hey, can you look longingly in that direction for me?I wana take a pic of you for my polo forum photography competition.

Can just imagine the look i would get....
