*** March Photo Competition ***
Well I've been thinking about this and ended up with a very long list of possibles, but I've decided on :

Too Close for Comfort

Ever found yourself a bit too engrossed in taking a photo and not really thinking about just how close you were getting to something you perhaps shouldn't have ? Usually makes a good pic though !

Closing Date: 31st March 2008

Usual rules apply - No prizes apart from fame. One photo per person with name and short description to follow the theme/brief as suggested by the winner of the previous month's competition. All entries must be posted up in this thread by midnight on the 31st March at the very latest - any entries posted after this date will not be included. All entries will then be entered into a public vote that will run for a period of seven days...

Here's mine, I know he's only a little moray but I did like his teeth.



I have a slight problem in that I won't be able to set up the poll for this as I will be in Mexico, hopefully in a cenotes somewhere. So is there a kind volunteer who would be able to step in & do this please ?

Son, you're going to have to make up your mind about growing up and becoming aircrew. You can't do both.

The aircraft limits are only there in case there is another flight by that particular aircraft. If subsequent flights do not appear likely, there are no limits.

The plan is vital, it's something to deviate from..

Nice photo Mark but it needs a bit of colour correction. Here's my attempt to correct it...

Well I haven't got a hope in hell of winning this month's compo as I haven't got any warm water photos!

I did, however, find this photo from last year. As you can see, Action Man had me locked in his sights and I was lucky to get away with my life! That was definately 'too close for comfort'... phew!!!!!



Sorry. I know, I know - it's a sh*t pic but it's about as close as I can get to the compo theme without posting up yet another (and considerably less impressive) moray photo!

Tough challenge especially as I've not upset a moray either. But this chap definitely thought that I was too close for his comfort.
