Picture Inspired contest of my Island

caption:
THIS IS PICTURE 6
This is pulpit rock we jump off this every summer down by the lighthouse.

changed it faster loads entered for pic one and wanted loads of diferent images

(if you are inspired by this photo put this number in your author notes) if you want to enter but this pic does not spark you then reserve your spot and The pic will change every day.

hello dudes I am back and here is an exciting one Inspired by Bazza asking me for photos of my island I have decided to give you my favorite photos of my home and I want you to write me somthing amazing

rules sorry there has to be a few

- nothing rude or erotic I want children to read them

- dont take kindly to dark poetry so forget it thankyou

-rhyme or free verse whatever takes your fancy go for it

- no swearing or bashing it shows a lack of respect and a lack of vocablury. you can express it some other way.

- The picture has to inspire you what i will do is put a different picture up every day or every other day. you reserve your spot if you want to enter. I have loads of photos for you to choose from. check my contest every day when one grabbs you then write me a poem about it.

- underneath the photo I will write a number so I know that when I read your poem I can see which photo inspired you. (I wish I could put multiple photos up at one time but im sadly not a gold member oh well.)

- to check that you have read the rules i will ask you to write in your authors boxes "portland oh my portland."

- think thats it except have fun and obviously no prewrites duh!

good luck all creative one who are up for a challenge.
