Fan photo competition

By Wales · Updated over a year ago
Thanks to everyone who submitted photos. We've selected what we think are the best, and now we're going to have a little contest … (Sorry if yours isn't here, there were 100s submitted).
Please 'like' your favorite picture, the photo with the most 'likes', will win.
We've also roped in US arts journalist and author, Adam Lehner, to select one based on his professional experience.
The two winners will receive a Wales themed goody bag. We will count the votes and announce the winner on Monday November 23rd at 3pm EST.
So get voting and 'like' your favorite.

    • Geraint Rees Hey Kevin, Are you one of those Americans who give us a really bad impression of your countrymen?
      November 18, 2009 at 4:48pm
    • Matthew Dewi Jones Wales not fully conquered! we live on!

    • Frances Matthews I just want it noted that not all Americans think that way-- I was born in Wales but have lived over in Canada and the US all my life. Unfortunately, the American education system only thinks England, Scotland and Ireland exist. Wales is barely mentioned in textbooks if at all.

    • Mark Soanes I am honoured that our photos have been chosen amongst such high quality entries. I also have to echo what others have said that when you live in a such a beautiful place as Wales and you see it every day you forget to step back and appreciate it!

    • Pam Allison My great grandfather was from Wales, he came to the US as a teenager and became a sea captain.(Capt.David Ellis) I am so very proud of him, and of my Welsh ancestry. My older sister just made a trip there this summer, I pray for the day that I can visit also. What a beautiful country!

      November 21, 2009 at 7:13am
    • Zena Blundell I've liked several I hope that's ok. What an awesome calendar some of this photographs would make. What a pity most of them are of North Wales. Were there none of South, Mid and West Wales that were good enough? Also please can you do this again next year as I would have liked to submit but saw the details too late. :-{

    • Judith A Read I agree with Zena it would make a great calenda and I too have picks but was too late

    • Kevin Kingpin Brady Oh, Wales is beautiful, that's why the English conquered it.
      November 23, 2009 at 9:24pm
    • Mark 'Drama' Chan If anyone's in or around North Wales, I'd recommend getting up to Aber Falls soon; it'll be immense due to the rain we've had :)
