Most of my mountain photos seem a bit lumpy this month (Donalds mostly), so it's agriculture. Taken with my Panasonic Lumix TZ60, chasing down off Lucklaw hill to catch it on 19th January

Just in case anyone is put off by Altenacker's post, the rules state

ENTRIES ACCEPTED UNITL SOME TIME ON THE 15th OF EACH MONTH

But I expect you all knew that.

Thanks Sgurr.

To confirm, we should ignore Altenacker's post since votes received before the 15th do not count. He assures me he was simply carried away by the entries so far.

Still 10 days to add more entries.
