Well done SBS, it was a tie there for a while and I hoped it would go my way, alas not. Who did you pay off for the final vote?

Don't do it stu.
Your Frenchman shot is a classic and really well done. [Did you have a tripod?]
While the number of people voting is very small, I suspect the ability to win is a bit of a crap shoot.
There are probably a number of influences that can have a major effect, but I suspect one of them is a desire to reward different themes over time.
If a number of waterfalls win in sequence, the pressure builds to select something else next time.
The same for sunsets/sunrise - cloud shots, etc.
This month's entries cover an enormous variety and are all very well done.
I do hope we can work out some way to get more people voting, but that won't happen if the number of contributors drops off.

I shan't reveal who was paid off Doogs, let's just say I will have to pay for this glory for some time.
Don't throw in the towel Stu, I've seen waaaay too many brilliant pics of yours that could take a win, eggs is right, maybe the few key votes came my way because people are sick of winter and want some beach action??
I like all the pics this month, tibboh's is a classic!
