2017 Photo Comp. WINNERS

Post by Bearbonesnorm »

After a very piss-poor turnout of voters, we have a tie in the photo comp. Congratulations to both Jameso and Bob who are joint winners with 4 votes each ... prizes on their way in due course fellas. Well done to everyone who submitted a picture and to the 3 of you who voted :wink:

]Suddenly realised that it's 'that' time of year, so here's a few simple rules / guidelines for this year photo comp.

Post a pic between now and Christmas eve, here.

Something you've taken this year that portrays bikepacking / cycling.

One entry per person.

Give your picture a title.

If you post an attachment, please make it small enough to avoid scrolling to view it ... spoils the picture completely.

Entries will close Christmas day and voting will open.

Voting will close on New Years eve.

The winner will receive something nice yet to be decided.
May the bridges you burn light your way

Rovaniemi 300

To make the photo better, I think the bottom needs cropping

Tried several times using the Img button and the Url button, nothing is working, I'll keep trying.
Edit, working as a Url link, can't get it to work as an image though.

On the desktop version of Imgur, hover your mouse pointer over the image and in the top right corner you'll get a URI along with a "Copy" button. Next to this is a down pointing arrow (one of these ^ upside down), hover over this and you get a menu. The second option is "Get Share links", click on that and a dialog appears with four options. Click on the bottom left "Copy" button. Now just paste here, everything is correctly done for you.

Brings back memories that Phil - I was looking at some of mine of that section as well. I think my better shots are from the Bealach Horn loop though. Choices, choices.
