> Can a botanical illustration entry be a photo?

Mmmmm, I don't see why not. While my original idea was of a sketch
/drawing/painting, I never expected it to be a large category. I just want
to encourage people to share what THEY appreciate about the hobby with
others using whatever medium they prefer. If someone likes to take photos of
individual plants or flowers, why the heck not submit it?

It might be getting away from "aquascaping" in the strict sense but I see
way too many people run screaming when the topic of "aquascaping as art"
comes up. Perhaps by widening our scope we can let people relax and get more
participation and involvement from a wider group of people.

This is supposed to be fun.
