I think one can also submit up to 4 photos per category for their contest, and each category costs 10 pounds, sterling. Potentially $40 could give you 16 photos - unless I have misunderstood their rules?
Love those allium!
Enter!
Shady, many thanks.
Georgia, Don't I wish I were good enough! (And false modesty has never been one of my sins.)
Marie, Those allium are now delightful seed heads.
