Hyde Daily Photo is one of more than 100 websites worldwide that post a daily picture of their home town or city. On the first of each month, many of them post a picture according to a selected theme. On 1st January 2007, the theme will be "Photo of the Year". Now I could not decide which of over 200 pictures I should use, so below I have placed ten contenders for the honour. Anyone and everyone was free to cast up to 6 votes for the pictures of their choice. The winning picture is featured on Hyde Daily Photo and the runner up on Ackworth born, gone West. The original contenders are shown below in the order of number of votes cast. The links on the left-hand side go to the original postings which carry explanatory text about the photos and any comments that have been made about them. |
