Well done, Chris! Thanks to everyone that entered and voted. Chris’ landscape will be featured in the next Orms Direct newsletter.
Hi everyone! May has been our Facebook galleries’ biggest month yet – We received a ton of amazing submissions! If you haven’t browsed through the “Your Photos: May 2012” album yet, do yourself a favour and go take a look. No, seriously, it’s worth it.
This also means that it was incredibly difficult to narrow it down to our five favourite photos for the competition. However, by process of elimination, we believe we’ve selected five great photos below, and we hope you all enjoy them. Let us know which one you like the most by leaving a comment below! The winning photo will be announced on Friday 25 May and will be featured in the June newsletter (subscribe here).
Each photo is followed by the name of the photographer, in alphabetical order. Remember to click on the image to enlarge.

Photo2 from Chris Snelling…just love the “peace and quiet” of the photo yet it is strong and pulls you in
Number 2 without a doubt. It’s natural, local and has an amazing juxtaposition-ing of growth, life and abundance (the tree and the water laden clouds) with drought and lifelessness (the parched soil). It’s a stunner!
