This is from Jencaster, by Ian Lancaster (IanLMS) which has some wonderful models and photography.

PS Just a thought, but perhaps after this first month, it ought to be photos chosen from those posted in the particular month in question - otherwise there might be as many choices as there are choosers! And perhaps easier to choose one as there are so many great pictures in the various threads.

That idea has some merit Michael but there are so many excellent photos from the past that haven't yet had an airing, I didn't see any point in having a time scale.
Additionally, there are the "regulars" who post frequently and others - the majority - who hardly post at all. If we're not careful, we could end up with all the photos being selected from just a handful of members.

When I came to post, I read your latest comments Peter and I can see the dilema, as there are so many quality images across the forum, past and present, which makes an objective choice more difficult.
On reflection though, I tend to agree with Michael's post script, as to help maintain our longevity, the forum needs to support current output.
Here is my favourite from August, for the Spetember POTM:
I also give thanks to everyone here for sharing their work, which provides so much help and inspiration for modellers everywhere.

At 6'4'', Bill is a tall chap, then again, when horizontal he is rather long and people often used to trip over him! . . . and so a nickname was born :)

Sorry Peter, I completely missed your reply. On reflection, I think you are right. If members choose to vote for recent photos, then that is fine, but as you so correctly point out, there are many fine examples of modelling here that also deserve recognition. An example, perhaps, of leaving it up to the individual and see how we go.[user=1512]Headmaster[/user] wrote:

I change my mind! Michael didn't even get a train in it… Not even track, it should be disqualified! hahaAnd the worthy winner this month is:
