    Challenge 65 – Trees

    My apologies to all for the delay I have been away for the weekend without internet.

    I have a fascination with trees and their individuality so 'Trees' are my challenge. The canvas is completely open, colour or black and white. As this is first for me in every way, a title will be a great help to interpret the thought behind the image. Good luck.


    The standard competition rules apply:
    • The competition subject shall be selected by the winner of the preceding competition who will also judge the competition.
    • The period of the competition shall be approx 14 days: starting immediately from Tuesday19th March until Midnight on Monday 1st April.


    • One picture per person; images should conform to general image posting rules.
    • Please use a Canon DSLR.
    • Posted images should be taken during the running period of the competition. Any images submitted that were taken before the competition started, or after the competition has ended, will be deemed invalid.
    • Images 800 pixels widest max (to help those with small monitors).
    • No Photoshop frames and borders.
    • Include a title; the image must convey the theme without title description.
    • Please, no comments, on images until the round is over.
    • No canvassing e.g. “I’m thinking of posting this image for the challenge, what do you think?”
    • The guest ‘judge’ will pick 1st 2nd and 3rd favourite images (please don’t PM them to discuss their choices).

                Planted in 1805 on the instructions of Lady Mildmay to provide wood for shipbuilding following the Napoleonic War, the original oaks are slowly dying.

                            800px widest, so on Di's submission above the vertical dimension is 800px, the horizontal is smaller and scaled. Look forward to your submission.
