***January Photo Contest Finals*** [View all]

Contest open for 48 hours.

Diamond_Dog was the winner of the November contest and decided that the theme for the January Contest will be "Vintage"

Any image that evokes days gone by. It could be a photo of an object, like an old toy or collectible …..old machine, old tool …… a piece of clothing or jewelry ….. a beautiful old building, house, church, or business ….. an old car …..something you found in a thrift store …..a photo of a place where you had some fond memories…..these are a few examples.
