Okay, okay! Cards on the table. The way it works is... those who submit early in the competition have a better chance than those who submit at the last minute? Simple

Just a reminder as to why we're all here :
-------------------------------------
"Using black and white*"
What is special about monochrome? Shoot anything you like in black and white*, but pay attention to what makes monochromatic pictures special and use those characteristics to your advantage.
*Read 'monochrome' for 'black and white'
-------------------------------------
When you post your pictures does not matter. Posting your pictures does matter. Me? I'm just trying to boost my post count before April

Posted mine up at last. All are excellent entries so far - shaping up to be a good month I reckon. 
I do have another slightly different shot I was thinking of using (with the king on it's side) but our lass hates it so used the one she likes.
Any comments appreciated as usual

Thanks Tanya! Mine was digital and colour, but I thought if I convert it to mono the shadow will stand out more and give more character to the picture. The original is here but I quite prefer the mono version myself.

I find a lot with mono if it's good in colour it's good in mono, like your original version as well

Wow.. so many amazing images.
It's quite interesting to see what other people take photos of... some of the more 'established members' don't seem to post on the appraisal gallery so it's nice to see those peoples entries.
I thought I would have a go and get involved... My entry was taken on the first day I had my camera in Jan...

Lounge Lizard Simply stunning portrait.
I've actually taken some new shots for this month, although they didn't come out quite as well as I thought.
