Hi from Tony in Southampton

I have been admiring the many wonderful images on Pictures of England for several years, and I finally thought it was time to begin uploading some of my own.

I live on the south coast, but have been to many places in the country, and wherever I go my trusty camera always goes with me.

I hope you enjoy my pictures as I enjoy yours, and I hope the new option to allow sales of photographs will help the site to grow further. 

Hi again Tony nice to see you here in the forum.

Thanks for submitting your pictures, maybe you can find a few bob to help support POE?

Please don't be offended by my asking because POE has struggled thus far to keep the site going.

Most of the members with Gold Star status are just everyday photographic amateurs who feel the site should introduce a mandatory no donation, no pictures facility, but I can tell you that POE owners Chris and Sarah want to keep it easy to use and as inexpensive for the members, unlike other sites who charge a considerable amount of money to be involved, with lots of restrictions and conditions.

Lets face it they are only asking for the kids pocket money for a week or two.

Anyway, enough from me on the donation issue, enjoy the POE site and the fantastic members that we have here.
