A tie! (only the second time in the history of our photo competitions). As before, I've given my wife (who knows very little of anyone or anything on the forums) the casting vote.

And the winner this month is... The stately Wentworth Falls NSW from the National Pass. Congratulations again, johnw. The key to the photos is below.

Thanks Adam . I was looking out for potential shots for the competition while on a short solo day trip, and that was one of the better ones. The falls are quite spectacular when there's a reasonable flow as they drop about 250 metres overall into the valley. Thanks to the other entrants, it was great to see an increase in entries with an impressive variety of shots. I'm hopeful there will be more still from the mainland as the weather starts to cool a bit and forum members get out into the bush more often, armed with their cameras.

Girls and boys, don't forget that both photo comps for March close midnight Sunday. There was an increased number of entries for February, and I think March weather was probably more favourable in many places. So let's see if we can collectively get a record number of entries!
