It's that time again....

Our May Photo Contest starts at 2am on May 1st (thats actually midnight on the server that hosts our site)

The Theme for this Contest is............ "INVERTS"

Get out those careas and get shooting, the last contest had some great shots and we think there will be even more great shots for this contest.

Please note....There is one rules change:

12. In the event of a tie, the software will automatically select the entry that was submitted first as the winner.

All other rules stay the same as the last contest.

Here is the official description from the contest...

GIRS May Photo Contest...

We finally have a winner to the March Photo Contest...

Congratulations to Jeremy (Waverz)

The BOD would like to extend a big THANKS to everyone who participated in our March Photo Contest. The theme was "Your Favorite Coral"

We had 38 entries in the contest and I must say they were all very good!
Obviously the GIRS members thought so also because we had 148 votes cast.
In the end after all the votes were cast, it was a 3 way tie between
Waverz "Red Montipora Cap"
Glaspie69 "Frogspawn"
Anna "Duncan"

The BOD voted to break the tie with Waverz winning in the tie breaking vote.

Watch for our next contest in May....Stay tuned for details later this month.
