My second nomination is some what of a rarity in photography terms, 144 is seen laying over at Aikmen Dr...you don't see many pics of Darts at night.

Well, we couldn't really decide on how to resolve this, so we're going into extra time. Pick your favourite.

August's photo will remain up until we decide this!

Won in extra time by one vote, I think that's the closest POTM we've ever had.

December 2009 was also a tie which required an extra vote. But that month only 3 photos were entered.

Due to the closeness of the vote, the runner up photo has also been loaded into the Facebook Photo of the Month album.

If I'd voted, it would have been for 449 in Schlich St, Yarralumla....well done Bus 400 (good composition & nice to see a pic with a bike on bus); other contributions all very good too. Thanks team.
