The photo submissions were amazing this month! We’ve selected five finalists – leave a comment to pick your photo of the month!

Update Friday 24 February 01:11PM: And the winner is… Margherita Introna!

“I had a little visitor in my office.”

Beautiful photograph, Margherita! It will be featured in our redesigned March newsletter. We’re looking forward to next month’s photo submissions – keep sending them in! Details on where to mail the photos are included at the end of the post.

Update Friday 24 February 12:20PM: Voting is now closed. Thanks for all the comments! We’ll be announcing the winner shortly.

We received some amazing photo submissions for the Facebook gallery this month! Go take a look! As you’ll see, it was very difficult to select the top photographs for the Monthly Photo Competition, but we believe we ended up with five great photographs showcasing a nice variety of styles and genres.

Each photo is followed by the name of the photographer, in alphabetical order:

Monthly Photo Competition – February 2012

  16. Number 1, 2, 4 and 5 are all beautiful photos.

    But Photo 03 by Johan van der Westhuizen gets my vote.
    Not only is it beautifully composed, but it is FULL of character. Full marks from me, and it gets my vote.

  34. Number 4 –  Margherita Introna, timing, how often do you get to take a shot like this? The other photo’s are great, but I love photos that you can only take once and that makes it unique.
