Congratulations to you and all who have their work accepted. It is something to aspire to, although I would first have to find out how one submits an image for consideration.

I'm not surprised those were accepted. Beautiful pics, both of them! Congratulations.

Just go ahead and send them a request to be included Jackie! You don't have to start submitting photos just yet, but it will give you access to the PPG entries that are pending so you can see the standard of the other submissions. There's nothing to be intimidated about, while some of the submissions are brilliant, there is an almost equal number of horrendous ones I was a bit nervous about submitting any of my photos until I saw some of the very very average photos some other people had submitted Think I will wait and see if my overall standard can be improved well, I do try.
You also get the pleasure(?) of voting on submissions, which can be a nice way to while away 10 minutes every now and then.

Thanks for all your kind comments folks, really appreciate it.
For me, it was a case of submitting some images and testing the water, as they say.
Go on everyone, give it a go!

Agree with you Tim, when voting on other people's images... you see absolutely stunning images and some very average shots being submitted, I wonder why sometimes. (that's not meant to sound big-headed :blushI was a bit nervous about submitting any of my photos until I saw some of the very very average photos some other people had submitted
