I'm very pleased to announce the winners of the competition for the best photos submitted to us in February 2012, voted for by you:

2nd Prize: Glen Lyon - Praying Hands of Mary by Tiompan
3rd Prize: Menhir Ober-Moerlen by Janthepic

View the photos and more Highly Commended entries here.

(*) The Praying Hands of Mary is not an ancient site in a strict sense but we've accepted it as a relevant location so it would be churlish to disqualify

1st Prize: Bryn Cader Faner by Talsarnau_Times

2nd Prize: Glen Lyon - Praying Hands of Mary by Tiompan (*)

3rd Prize: Menhir Ober-Moerlen by Janthepic

Photos can be scored for visual or archaeological merit or for any other reason you like. Congratulations to all, as well as the kudos of having won out of all those photos, you have all won an exclusive Megalithic Portal T shirt or prize from our Online Shop. There are some more Highly Commended photos with good scores that I thought you'd like to see:

Thanks as always to everyone who voted and entered. Just as a recap, each month all the photos submitted to the Megalithic Portal have a chance to win by being voted on by you, the Megalithic Portal visitors and contributors.

There is still time to vote on the June, July and August competitions. We will be catching up time and announcing the results of the next few month's competitions soon.

Please do vote and comment on any photos that particularly catch your eye. A vote from any person will start off the scoring, remember that you are allowed to vote for your own photos once if you would like to put them forward. Equally you do not have to have your photos rated or voted on if you don't want to. Please contact Andy B via the 'Contact Editor' link if you do not want to take part.

More details on the monthly photo competitions are here.
