Jul 2024 POTM voting Poll

[maroun.c]

Didn't know you hid the thread. I'm learning all kinds of stuff today

We try to keep potm from becoming a popularity contest, not a big deal really as it was always a fun competition so it's OK. Good luck to all and make sure to join Aug POTM which will be up in few days. Feel free to suggest topics as well!

The old " don't vote for me reverse psychology." Very clever. Lol

Actually I was just bumping the thread. I stated it wasn’t an entry.

I saw your post and know that. I'm 100% just ribbing you

I'm glad you were put in the competition. It's about sharing great pics of cool corals. Something that you excel at. The more the merrier

I want to see a POTM of the most aesthetic cable management/plumbing layout. :P

Oof. I will have nothing to submit

Neither would I. :grimacing-face:

Maybe an "artsy' type theme that plays with light and color. You know, like back-lit with sun flare or dark and moody. Or filters playing with color. My wife likes shooting these type of photos whereas I am more straightforward. But I would be interested to see what the community came up with.

+1
That's an interesting idea - a more artistic take on POTM.

Some stunners this month. Good job to all.
Try to remember this is a photography contest or it will become meaningless :crying-face:

I think we should try something different and not so straight edge.

Congrats to all! Though it’s seems odd that this poll happened to get nearly triple to quadruple the votes of the last five polls (except March) making it seem like campaigning might be occurring outside the thread (which I thought wasn’t allowed but I don’t see that rule posted). This is just a statement and not a sore loser statement. I’m just glad people think my pic is good enough to qualify for the voting thread.

I think there was an email flyer inviting participation in this month's contest. I don't remember seeing one in past months. Maybe that was the difference?
