Hi all,

Welcome to December's category of the annual Photo Comp for 2010 - the last chance to win a great prize!

The theme is "Cichlid Profile shot".

Entries are to be of a cichlid in a classic profile shot. What we are looking for is a picture that is suitable to be used in a cichlid book as a pictorial description of a species. Check out the catalogue of fishes in any of the Back to Nature guides for some good examples (some of these books are available to club members in the PCS library). The photos are to include the entire length and breadth of the fish and should not have any other fish species in it. The photo must be taken by the entrant and should not be any wider than 1024px.

Please send entries to Cawdor via PM or email to cawdor at gmail dot com

The competition closes 10pm 31st of December.

First place will receive their choice from the list of prizes under monthly winners here: Prize List

Runner up prize is a copy of Heiko Bleher's new magazine - Discusbook 01

Reminder: You must be a Club Member to enter comps and entries are to be anonymous (don't put a name on the photo). Please include the species name with your entry if possible.

Note: Please do not comment about an individual photo in the comp until after the voting is closed. We want to give everyone an equal chance, so all comments about individual photos will be removed.
