In May, as part of my Virtual Thing of the Day series, I posted about an uplifting Facebook group called The View From My Window. That group made a point of saying that it was not intended to be a competition. Today, we’re looking at exactly the competition that Facebook group was trying to avoid. It may not be their cup of tea, but I think it’s wonderful!
This is the Through a Window photo competition hosted by the Visions Photography Club right here on WordPress!
“Choosing winners for this competition was a significant challenge due to the large number of entries – but of course it’s grand that so many members made the effort to submit their photographs. There were many imaginative and artistic photos to choose from – a huge variety. I initially selected a short-list of 20 and eventually – with much swithering and dithering – whittled that down to the following three winners.”
– Competition Judge Lynda Gordon
One of the cooler things about this club is that once you win a competition, you get to be the judge for the next one. That’s marvelous! Here’s the competition’s first place photo by Trevor Stuchbury. What a clever way to play with the theme!
You can see all the winning entries on the competition post and you can follow the Visions Photography Club on their blog.

Back when… I did try to join in but never got any where. Probably a good thing since I would have taken a photo from my own window. Not too exciting compared to these. lol

Mine isn’t that exciting either (though our contractors started yesterday, so at least there’s plenty of activity!)

Yes there are some interesting pictures but there is nothing interesting looking thru any of my windows except one very large palm tree. But they are very common down here in Florida. == Hal

I have been craving a palm. I think when I’m planning my back deck planters, I’m going to try to find something hardy enough to winter here.

I started to send this privately to Donna but changed my mind in case anybody else is interest. Visit here and get your palm. Winter comes you bring it inside.
