PHOTO OF THE MONTH ARCHIVES
2021


Friends have asked me why I haven't kept an archive of my Photographs of the Month since I commenced putting them up some 10 years ago. Well, I have considered doing this for some time and in 2016 and the 10th anniversary of the first photo feature I decided to include each month's photograph. Sadly I kept no records of previous top pics prior to 2016, most unlike me, but enjoy this section of the website, you never know if you've been featured, or one of your photographs is inluded.

Photographs taken by P. Ellis unless noted
