Title: Photo of the Month - November 2011
Post by: Barry Drive on October 16, 2011, 12:59:24 PM
You've waited long enough: nominations for November Photo of the Month are now open. Each member may submit 2 photographs for consideration by fellow forum members.

Photos must contain a bus and be related to ACT - either a photo taken in the ACT (or Queanbeyan if you are that way inclined) or a photo of a former ACT bus operating elsewhere. Photos must not have been previously submitted for POTM.

Nominations will close at 6pm (AEDT) Tuesday 25 October.

As before, non-members can submit nominations via facebook (http://www.facebook.com/ACTBus).

Ditto for me please. I've wanted to vote in the past and I thought there were voting buttons 'somewhere' but couldn't locate them.
