BcUK Photograph of 2014 competition Grand Final

[Mesquite]

Well it's been a long time coming and with 11 heats to vote on we have to now decide the overall winner for 2014.

Whoever wins this heat will be the overall winner of the BCUK photo competition for 2014 and will win a years free full membership on the forum and will also be asked to nominate a theme for Octobers heat in the 2015 competition.

I know it's going to be a hard decision for you to make as all the pictures here are all winners in their own right but you've got to now pick one so without further ado here's the entries.

Happy voting and good luck to everyone

Phew there have been some astonishingly good entries this year. Congrats to everyone who has taken part, and thanks especially to Mesquite for doing a great job organising and running the monthly competitions.

That was hard, I was really pulled by quite a few and it almost seems unfair not to give a vote to them all. Brilliant work on running a great competition Mesquite. Good luck to all the entrants.

It does indeed, especially as there's a tie for first place at the moment

Might be worth editing the closing date and time into post #01?
At the moment it's only mentioned in the poll and, conceivably, some folk might miss it and think it's a whole of the month thing

A really great set of images here; I'm always gobsmacked at the consistent high standard of photographic skills displayed here in general. Excellent stuff, well done all who contribute and thanks
