We had one leader right from the start of voting but the placings were always pretty close and in the end couldn't be separated.

Congratulations once again to avan - two wins in consecutive months - the clear winner having attracted 22/137 votes with the another Owl capture this one titled lunch time. Avan used a Nikon 82ED with a DS30X and a Nikon CP4500.

Joint second with 15/137 votes were -

Our very popular Dr.Manjeet Singh from Malaysia using a Kowa TD1 with his entry Sentry Caught Napping...lol

and

another popular Gallery member who also makes regular contributions mikibedi with his entry Out on a limb... using a Leica 77 and a Nikon CP4500.

Congratulations to the winners and to everyone who participated both in submitting entries and in taking the time to view them, cast your vote and comment on them.

It looks like Digiscoped Birds may become a regular theme.

The entries will remain in place a couple of days before details of the December competition are posted.

Thank you very much to everybody and congratulation to other winner and also to other that have send picture. The quality as usual was very high and so i'm a bit embarrased. A special mention to dr manjeet for is sens of humour and non competitive attitude, a model. Thanks

Congratulations to everyone who took part in this month's competition, winners or not. I must agree with Manjeet, so many members but so few voters. Is it because the majority of members are not interested, or maybe they are unaware of the competition and their opportunity to vote. Perhaps these competitions could be better publicised. Come on members, give a little more support to the partcipants.

Had a day off work yesterday, so missed the competition results. Only entered for a bit of fun really, so was a bit surprised at a joint second, thanks all for voting. Did think Manjeet's picture was a dead cert winner, so good job i'm not a gambler Congratulations to Manjeet & of course to the winner, Avan.
