Re: August 2010 POTM - VOTE NOW
Nothing wrong with voting for your own if you like it better than the rest. At least that's my feeling.
There's some really nice close-ups this time around. I don't know how you people take such good photos. I need to pay someone to come and get some good shots of mine. I know my puffers would make lovely pictures .... if someone other than myself took the shots!
Best of luck to all the entrants to this month's POTM!

I haven't voted - I can cast mine. I've been so busy with school starting back up that I missed PotM!
"I will give you a talisman. Whenever you are in doubt, or when the self becomes too much with you, apply the following test. Recall the face of the poorest and the weakest man whom you may have seen, and ask yourself, if the step you contemplate is going to be of any use to him or her. Will she gain anything by it? Will it restore her to a control over her own life and destiny? In other words, will it lead to freedom for the hungry and spiritually starving millions? Then you will find your doubts and your self melt away."
