Christmas photo competition

Thought i would try some bokeh shots and being in a festive mood, thought the tree lights would be a good start.

Animals always seen happy with their owner but this chap didn't seem to impressed with his xmas hat that was put on him.

Taken last winter we had a rare visit to our garden by this Robin who used to frequent here every winter. We have not seen it since this shot was taken and so I feel so lucky that I managed to get just this one shot of it.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from PFB! We are glad to see that a lot of you have been busy with your cameras over the Christmas period and have sent in some fantastic festive shots. Congratulations to Adrian Brown for his shot 'Christmas Bokeh'. We love how you have created some colourful background blur with your Christmas tree lights. We hope you enjoy your prize; a copy of PhotoPlus X6 (PC Only) editing software from Serif. Well done to the runners up; Darren Thomas, Richard Freeman, Carl Surry and Lucie Talmage. You really captured in Christmas spirit in your photos.
