I wonder, are there any rules in this competition regarding "half ships" & low res. images?

Title: Re: Real Life POTM (2)!
Post by: Traddles on November 11, 2009, 16:13:25

Can I count this as a "ship". It IS a flying boat after all, a WW2 Catalina actually, seen flying down the Mersey a short time ago on 27th September, 2009.
N.B. The picture is a little wooly as it was taken on full zoom from some distance.

Nothing against it in the rules but I personally wouldn't vote for partial photos - as for quality surely the better it is the better chance of winning?

Nathan, does it need to be a ship, is there a length requirement?

Title: Re: Real Life POTM (2)!
Post by: Nathan|C on November 15, 2009, 18:29:55

Size doesn't matter, as long as it's a boat/ship  :2thumbs:
