    7. I'd like to sign up, but it depends on your definition of 'neighbourhood'. If the pictures have to be taken really nearby, it will be woods, woods and some more woods...

      1. It can be as wide or as narrow as you like. Obviously, we all live in very different communities and woods are fine too!!
