Actually the idea came from a US group called Turtle Times which has been doing that for quite a few years now. I'm not even allowed on 'tortoise friends'(?). That didn't even cross my mind until you just mentioned it. Also... there are many groups that use this idea. It is far from original.

...and how do I alienate a group that has done such a wonderful job of doing just that to me?

Oh... another thing... by making it a competition the group is assured to get the best photos in an unbiased and objective manner... not to mention that it adds to the fun.

Oh and by the way it's not a competition on TF, it comes down to good quality photo's that are interesting or show the species well,
You don't change do you <g>
Take care
