Neat choice Tarayn - could you also put a link to the thread into your post (just click the edit post button under the post to chance the content). Just helps if we can link back to the original thread for people who want to compliment the original photographer on their work.

Please read the rules, you may not nominate your own photographs.

Is that your's? You aren't allowed to nominate your own photos.

If it isn't your's, you need to say who's it is.

Nominate your maximum limit of 3, and then go to the other threads and post a plea for someone to nominate those!

My take on the eclipse this past weekend, 15 shot blend from Owens Valley looking towrads the Alabama Hills and Sierra mountains. Would always love C&C and feedback!

Lol, probably guilty as charged. BUT--it's not like it's *WRONG*, you're not somehow manipulating anyone into nominating a photo they don't actually think should be nominated--you're just saying "boy, if I hadn't already bagged my limit, I'd nominate this for photo of the month. Maybe someone else will do it instead."

I did say that in jest, but the more I think about it, the less I see wrong with it. Fact is, a lot of people don't remember about the photo of the month nominations, and the nudge couldn't hurt. And even if nobody nominates it, it tells the OP that someone DID consider it worthy of a nomination, but they were over the limit.

Great reasoning, don't you think?

Okay. Probably shenanigans.
