May 2015 "Theme" Contest


Place Your Contest Photos In This Thread


Quote:
The "Theme" Contest

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Discussion continues here: https://www.city-data.com/forum/photo...scussions.html
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Post your pictures in the appropriate thread.

Please read the appropriate DISCUSSION THREAD to be up to date before posting. You may post as many photographs in the discussion thread but the actual contest thread is limited to one photo.

The theme of the photo you enter in the "Theme" contest is determined by the winner of the last contest.

To be able to stay on a monthly schedule, the last day for submitting entry photographs will be five days before the end of the month, ie, if the month ends on the 30th then photos must be submitted no later than the 25th. If the month ends on the 31st then photos must be submitted no later than the 26th. Etc...

There are 31 days in May 2015, so, entries will end on May 26, 2015.


The poll will be opened the day after the last day for submitting entry photographs.

Default Colorado Belle

OK, a stretch here. Colorado Belle, A 608 foot authentic replica of a Mississippi Paddlewheel riverboat in Laughlin, Nevada. It looked really awesome right on the river, and the casino had a nice feel to it.
