I entered this pic in a local competition and found out the other day that I'm one of nine finalists!

It was shot with a Pentax K10d and a Sigma 17-70mm lens.




If any one would like to vote for me - please click here - all votes are much appreciated!

Also, if anyone would like to view the other entries they are on a gallery on the Oldham Advertiser's website

Thanks everyone!

Very nice. Well done.

My husband, an Oldhamite (or whatever they are called), is upset at the Advertiser (established in 1982) claiming to be The Newspaper for Oldham - he reads the Oldham Chron online, and has always read it

Very nice picture (and processing). Voted as well of course!

Thanks for all the kind comments and to everyone who voted for me.

I came first place in the competition, if anyone lives in Oldham - I'll be in the Oldham Advertiser this Thursday and possibly next Thursday.

My picture will be displayed on the side of the Oldham Gallery building once the weather is right for mounting, so if your passing through Oldham, you may see it!

Thanks again,

Brian.

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.
