Just back home after two days away. Where are all the entries? This isn't such a tricky subject is it?!
Just think of the expense - all for this competition

I sold a K20D body on eBay for £507 a week or so ago - where else would you get that sort of return?

..............I felt I had a bit of an unfair advantage owning ol' Fishy (was surprised a couple of other entrants didn't use theirs..................

Well done to all entrants for some excellent images all round this fortnight.
Many thanks to mikew for a very interesting competition and for the sound judging.
The grain in my image was intentional (to give it the slight feel of Pointillism) but the high ISO was an error - I took the shot without checking that particular setting
By the time I realised, I did not have the time to repeat the shot at a lower ISO.
We live and learn

There does seem to be some negativity about cashback, but the last time it worked just fine. Why assume this time it won't? It will never be quick, but I think 4-6 weeks is acceptable in comparison to the general run of these schemes.
Currently I expect two cashbacks in 90 days from car insurance offers and I will get them, because I'll make sure I do. But I don't expect it to go wrong....
I know that my application form was received on Monday 16th November and yet the website still states, when I log in (over 3 weeks later) - "We await receipt of your application form".
It should say "We have received your application form but have not processed it yet".
Not much to ask really.
If they 'pulled their finger out' and changed the message to say this (i.e. the truth), then I would shut up on the topic
The fact that it is also being run out of an office building in Barking (that has nothing to do with Pentax) also does not fill me with confidence.
