Gurcharanji: thats very well to do for the year end... and for those monthly sets /pics too... I was going to suggest that same ... regardless of which pic it was may be the person who got most nominations that month may be selected photographer of the month...
idea is to bring all upto the same level of good photography... my old photogrraphy teacher used to say... take your camera and take pictures and enter competetions when the judge rejects your pictures... pay close attention to what he/she was saying and improve... and watch what the winners did right ... that's the way to improve... I had hoped that more people would look and vote and participate... and improve their own endeavors .... may be I 'll think of more ways to get members to participate...
