    Results April Forum Competition 2009

    Hi all

    The images have been judged, so if you click on the following link you'll find
    April's Amateur Photographer monthly forum photographic competition results.

    And believe me...they are worth seeing.

    Thanks very much for taking part, and well done to the winners.

    Another excellent job of judgment and comment.

    Well done everyone.

    Tomel's shot is just a knockout.

    The little frog was a standout photo from the very moment it was posted, it has so much impact. Well done to all the winners

    A very worthy winner, just a superb shot. Glad to see Northerner was placed (always puts up great images). TomM is new but well placed. Snowqueens shot gladdens my old heart, she's definitely one to watch. And I was in the (long) shortlist. . .dear me, I'll just have to go and lie down. Thank you to the Tharg once again.

    That's all very well but what does Ken Rockwell have to say on the matter?

    Thanks All for the nice comments and Third Equal place. I'm chuffed!! What a great bunch of photos. I wonder if 'F' was letter of the month in the AP office? Frog (with Flower), Fly, Foot and Funky Fish....

    Good luck in this month's round!

    Congrats to the winners and runners up. I thought Tomel's shot was the only one that was going to win from the moment I saw it (and I don't often think that).

    Well done all.
    Cheers

    Congrats to the winners, as everyone else has stated the frog was just stunning. I'm just chuffed to make the short list and get a special mention amongst the set of cracking pictures there.

    Just stumped on what to do for this month.

    Thanks to Tharg for taking the time out to judge it as well, time to tend the garden now I think

    Cheers
    Simon

    First, I just want to humbly say "thank you" to everyone for all the kind words. It's truly an honor to win this month and the accolades are much appreciated.

    Second, I would like to congratulate the second and third place winners and all those that made the short list. There is a lot of talent there and the competition was stiff.

    Thanks again,

    Tom

    Well done to all concerned, the competition is getting closer each month. Hard job choosing the shortlist, I'm sure, but this month the winner was head and shoulders above the crowd.

    Congrats to all the shortlisted and winners. Another month of great photos and stiff competition. Seems like i started out on top and have gone downhill since then (not on the shortlist this time). I'll keep trying for a mug though!
