The December Photo and Caption Comments thread.

Let's make general comments about this month's photo and caption competitions here, to keep the competition threads free of general talk.

Re: The December Photo and Caption Comments thread.

How much of the member (pun not intended) needs to be visible?

Re: The December Photo and Caption Comments thread.

I think it was Kuno's intention that the member be identifiable, ie showing their face. I don't think 'just hands' would do.
Why? What percentage of 'the member' did you have in mind, Stefan?

Re: The December Photo and Caption Comments thread.

The standard of your photography is always very high, Stefan. I always look forward to seeing your photo in the contests. So you have as much chance as any one of us.

We won't be judging the competition on the members looks. If we did, there would be one obviously clear winner. Of course modesty prevents me from naming him!
