Our March competition shall be themed 'Spring', please upload your best photos to the competition entries category in the gallery.
The competition will be open until March 31st. At the end of March entries will go into a poll for voting for two weeks when a winner will be announced and transferred into the competition winners category. At the end of this year all competition winners will be entered into a poll for the photo of the year contest, held in January 2008.
One entry per member, photo must have been taken by a member but there is no time restriction on when the photo was taken.
Photos that have been entered in our gallery longer than 31 days shall not allowed.
In the event of an overwhelming number of entries Moderators and Admin will decide on a final short list, in this event any Moderators or Admin who entered the competition shall remove their own entry.

Please see below defination of 'Spring'
the season of growth; "the emerging buds were a sure sign of spring"; "he will hold office until the spring of next year"
a natural flow of ground water
jump: move forward by leaps and bounds; "The horse bounded across the meadow"; "The child leapt across the puddle"; "Can you jump over the fence?"
form: develop into a distinctive entity; "our plans began to take shape"
a metal elastic device that returns to its shape or position when pushed or pulled or pressed; "the spring was broken"
leap: a light, self-propelled movement upwards or forwards
bounce: spring back; spring away from an impact; "The rubber ball bounced"; "These particles do not resile but they unite after they collide"
give: the elasticity of something that can be stretched and returns to its original length
develop suddenly; "The tire sprang a leak"
a point at which water issues forth
produce or disclose suddenly or unexpectedly; "He sprang these news on me just as I was leaving"
A spring is a point where groundwater flows out of the ground, and is thus where the aquifer surface meets the ground surface. Depending on how constant the source of the water is - rainfall or snowmelt that infiltrates the earth - springs can be ephemeral (intermittent), perennial (continuous) or artesian. When they leave the ground they may forms pools or streams.
A spring is a flexible elastic object used to store mechanical energy. Springs are usually made out of hardened steel.
Spring is one of the four seasons of temperate zones. Astronomically, it begins with the spring equinox (around March 21 in the Northern Hemisphere, and September 23 in the Southern Hemisphere), and ends with the summer solstice (around June 21 in the Northern Hemisphere and December 21 in the Southern Hemisphere). ...
an issue of water from the earth; a natural fountain; a source of a body or reservoir of water.
A pool or other source of water that feeds a stream.
Level at which the springers (voussoirs) of an arch rise from their supports.
A location where groundwater flows naturally to the land surface or a surface water body.
A feature where water returns to the surface from an underground body of water. Also known as a 'rising'.
Ground water seeping out of the earth where the water table intersects the ground surface.
a flow of ground water emerging naturally onto the earth's surface and used as a domestic water source within a community watershed. The watershed area of a spring is defined as the total recharge area of the spring.
(Hunting) The part of a leg-hold or body-gripper trap that provides the stored power to make the trap close.
The natural outflow of water from underground through a break in the land surface caused by the pressure of the groundwater.
a natural flow of water from the ground, often the source of an above-ground stream.
The emergence of groundwater at the land surface, usually at a clearly defined point; it may flow strongly or just ooze or seep out.
The point at which the water table meets earth’s surface, causing water to flow from the ground.
A spring provides a means of describing and calculating the elasticity, mass, damping, etc between two points.
A situation that occurs when prices break below support, but soon reverse course and move back above support. Prices are said to "spring" back from their support break and indicate that the bulls are still alive. A spring can also be referred to as a failed (bearish) signal and is considered bullish. Generally, the reversal should occur within 1-3 days of the support break for the failed signal to be considered valid. This is the opposite of an up-thrust.
A feature where the water table intersects the land surface and water flows from underground at a more or less continuous rate.
To begin, as in "to spring a leak."
sails with hinged timber shutters, set before operating the mill, and connected by a spring-loaded lever which allows the shutters to open if struck by a gust of wind.
refers to the object from which the water flow appears to emanate. It may be a natural object (such as the rock in our "Fountain of the Gods") or a ceramic piece (such as in our "New Horizons"). A flexible water tube is attached to the Spring. It is the Spring that usually plays a vital role in the subtle adjustments that can be made once the basic operation of the fountain has been established. ...
A coiled steel part built in a spiral shape to help the car absorb the bumps and roughness of the racetrack. Some of the older racetracks are really rough and bumpy. The springs are mounted within the chassis near each wheel and are used to hold up the weight of the car. The springs are an intricate part in the equation that is used to determine a racecar’s height. The stiffness of the spring has a lot to do with the racecars setup and handling.
