    This month there's a bit of a stretch in the evenings and Lá lé Bríd has heralded in the beginning of Spring. So this month's topic is 'New Beginnings'. So take a photo of anything Spring related, lambs, calves snowdrops etc.

    Congrats Foxy farmer, our January winner with 3 yes that's right 3 votes. Sorry Icelandicsiege, but anyone with that much money and with 'gettyimages' :D plastered across it, either copied and pasted it or has really wealthy family members.

    There's been a few people complaining about big photos, if you are on a laptop perhaps you have the zoom setting bigger than 100%.

    There is a star shape on the top right of the screen where you type a web address, if you have the magnifying glass icon with a + sign in it, left click on it and select 'reset to default'. This should reduce the photos so that they can be seen on the screen. To increase the font size again hold the CTRL key down and press the '+' key. It's a useful feature to zoom in on photos/DD ads etc.




    Usual rules apply;



    Guidelines-

    Photo must be your own image i.e. taken by you or a family member.
    Photo should conform to this month's theme.
    You may enter more than once (within reason though, not 100 photos please!)
    No chat/banter on this thread please, it will be removed. If you want to discuss what's in the photo take it to chit chat or send a PM to the person who posted it.
    Even if the theme isn't strictly farming related, we would like to see the photos to have some tie to farming.
    No naughty pictures please.
    Final winners will be the photo with the most 'thanks' from a single photo which can be entered any month.

    So there are lots of chances guys!

    Any questions/queries, please PM blue5000

    Sure there'd be lads taking pictures of the river Shannon to win if we go with that title.;)

    How about your favourite animal on the farm.
    Be it a dog, cat, cow, sheep, horse, goat, pig, rabbit, etc, whatever takes your fancy.
    One that stands out to you.
