May/June Photo Contest - Spring Themed

I would like to introduce our monthly photo contest for May/June. This month's contest theme will be "spring themed." Please submit your best shot of any spring themed item. It could be spring flowers, spring animals/insects, a spring color or bird, any spring themed item perhaps even spring cleaning. This month's winner will receive a $50 gift certificate from the WetSpotTropical fish and aquarium supplier. Thanks so much to WetSpot for donating such a generous gift.

See the normal rules and disclaimers below.

1. Please only submit one photo. Should you submit more entries, we will automatically use your first posted picture.
2. You must be the person that took the picture and have permission to use it.
3. Your submission gives us permission to use the photo for this contest, host it on an offsite location and post it in a poll on SimplyDiscus.
4. Post processing is allowed, ie Cropping, sharpening, color correction etc. The goal with PP should be to bring out the images natural beauty or appearance. We strongly encourage our members to make use of the Photo Centre's free information center to improve their skills. ..(http://forum.simplydiscus.com/forumd...6-Photo-Centre) . Photos submitted must not have additional elements added that were not in the original image unless contest rules specifically allow for it.
5. No commenting please, comments will be deleted by moderators.
6. Since winners are determined by poll, all registered members of SimplyDiscus including Admins, Moderators, Sponsors, and Subscription holders are eligible to participate.
7. The contest will extend through June 21st and we will reserve the last week of June for voting.

We have tried to anticipate all issues and make the rules clear and concise, but should an issue or problem arise we maintain all rights to resolve it as we see fit. You agree to this by your submission

GOOD LUCK

Give us your best shot! With one month of Spring left, I'm sure there are all kinds of possibilities for this contest: fish, flowers, family, weddings, graduation,... A big thanks to The Wet Spot Tropical Fish here in the Pacific Northwest's beautiful city of Portland, along with their great online service. Knowing that many of our members have recommended them, they generously offered this month's awesome prize!

O.k. I'll kick this one off.
Was during spring a couple of years back where i was invited to fish a remote island up in Cape York. It's around this time that these little fellas start emerging from deep down in the sand.

One of my favorite spring pictures, circa 2006. An egg inside an egg was not what she expected!

Congrats Joe...your image I consider rare for the many of us...was it not only very cute but to be at the right place at the right time makes it that extra special.
Well deserved :)
I applaud all who submitted some great photos.

Thanks to everyone that entered this fun competition, and to everyone who voted for my picture. It was indeed a rare opportunity to see this event but also seeing the salt water crocidiles lined up for an easy feed. Nature at its very best. Thanks also to Wetspot Tropical Fish for their support towards Simply Discus

Yay Joe, great job!!!

Congratulations Joe! It was a great picture!
