    WOW!! I am certainly stunned and never expected to place ahead of some of the excellent entries that were my favorites. Special kudos to Liz- I thought you photo was perfect.... to simpson Bros for your totally fun, pure joy shot... to Froch for creeping me out with a stunning, impeccably shot take on the theme....to Karin for sharing an intimate moment between a little girl and her dog over an ice cream cone.

    Congrats to everyone who qualified for the Mega,
    Thanks to those who included my photo in their picks.

    Fun round.

    Thank you to all who commented on my photograph - they are all helpful in this learning experience. To put anyones mind at rest, yes, the sand did come off the chocolate.

    Congrats Chris... and the others who made the cut. I'm honored to be among you. So many good shots, good ideas, good techniques. The whole thing (Digital Grin) is a pretty amazing resource. There's not a time I log on that I don't see/read something that makes me a better photographer.
