Autumn 2007 Photo Comp Winners

Congratulations to everyone who entered the recent GrownUps Photo competition, in association with Seniors Card.

We had an incredible response thank you and a very, very active voting contingent of over 5000 votes! Therefore it was very close.

We will be having another competition later in the year so if we weren't able to give you a prize this time, then please do enter again next time.

Please note that there are a few Multi-winners (Congratulations!) who will receive one larger prize that reflects the Multi-Win as noted beside your name. Therefore although noted a number of times, this is a single prize, covering your Multi-Win.

Once again congratulations to the following winners.

Please note that due to the level of interest in the Winning entries, we are yet to add all of the winning images for you to view - please check back over the next day or two.
