Best Blog and Pictures of the Week 2017
We need your votes! We have two amazing (albeit currently top secret) prizes available – one for the author of the best blog post of 2017, and one for the photographer/artist of the best Pictures of the Week 2017!
Below are the top 10 in both categories! Sit back, have a cup of tea, and be whisked away by the brilliant words, photos and art that our wonderful A Focus On Nature members have brought to you throughout 2017!
The committee have voted to choose their favourite posts for the shortlists (excluding any posts written by a committee member of course!).
And now it is your turn to vote! Please look through the shortlists below to pick your favourite blog and Pictures of the Week. You may only vote for one post in each category, you may only vote once and you cannot vote for yourself.
To cast your vote, e-mail afonmembers@hotmail.com with the subject title of ‘Voting’, and include your e-mail, your name, your age and your favourite blog and Pictures of the Week in the main email. Feel free to write a few words about why it is your favourite! Please do NOT comment on this post with your vote, as it is meant to be anonymous.
