Every year, the moorers' association at Ventnor marina has a photo competition. Each member can submit one photo which is then judged by all the other members who can make one choice of a winner. I can't remember what the prize is, probably not an all expenses paid round the world trip, more likely a can of stern tube grease or something like that. The only rule of entry is that your photo should be waterways related, and of course taken by yourself.
I can't remember who won last year but it wasn't me.
So, I thought maybe you can help me by choosing one from my short list of my photos from this year. Actually I don't think I've got a winner this year either, but it's good to take part, so here are the best I can find. Remember that this will be judged by ordinary folk like you and me, so technical perfection isn't the criterion. It's probably more an emotional thing.
Sunsets are a bit corny, but people do seem to like them, so here are some. Probably best if you click on them to see them bigger if you have a bigger screen than a phone.
1. Taken at the moorings below Napton locks. The cattle on the horizon are what prompted me.

2 or 3. I think I would definitely go for 3 if it didn’t have the tiller in it.
3. It's the tiller what wins it.
I like 5 - and it's marina-specific, which should count for something!
I like 5 as well xx
2 does it for me, good sky
3 for me. Pip
I'm a sucker for sunsets, so 1 or 2 for me.
All beautiful photos, by the way!
Cheers, Marilyn
