* All pics to be taken by an N95 only and to have a description of the pic plus details of camera-settings whenever possible.

* Pics to be linked from photo-album sites and fully displayed in the post (not thumbnails and links to Flickr, etc.)

* Member "IJM" to keep the score and announce each months' winner on that night or first day of the month following. With a winner at the end of the year to be given a prize by "IJM" and prizes also given for 2nd and 3rd place.

* A few days before the end of the month, the top three people will receive a PM from IJM asking for their chosen theme for the following month. If the winner fails to respond in time with a theme to be used, the 2nd place users theme will be chosen, and so on with 3rd etc.
There we go, now please use this thread to post your PICTURES ONLY and the information surrounding them.

Please use this thread for general chit-chat about the competition.

Voting will close on the 29th Feb at 10pm UK Time.

I have no idea what type of Moth this is, but the picture was taken at my Mums place after she found one of her cats playing with it. I believe it had a leg missing :(

Default Macro settings, with flash by the looks of it (Was a while ago :P)

This is a Rata, a native New Zealand tree that flowers bright red at Christmas time - the near-translucent bug in the left bloom was not even visible to me when I took this photo....
