Difficult theme,but great photos.

Wan2caTanager · Monday 24th October 2005, 22:01

Great pictures everyone, very hard to choose!
Oh by the way, I noticed that a few of the photos were not included in the slide show (for instance "Tree Stump or Common Potoo?" and "Hiding in Plain Sight") was this an error or did my computer skip it or something? I was just wondering.

I actually found it easy to pick my favourite one this month a truly excellent shot and it fitted with the theme. There were some other very good pics but this one really caught my eye.

Everything seems to be woking fine for me. I have redone the link just in case anyone else has similar problems. If the sevreal people still have this problem I'll remove the link to the slideshow.

Thanks Ian, all of the photos are there for me now.
