What a tough round! You guys didn't make it any easier on your wonderful judges, Angela Davis and I, but we somehow managed to agree on seven photos, giving you a lucky thirteen to choose from. :clap

The poll will be open for the next 72 hours, so let your favorite be known! Any previously registered member of DGrin may vote.

    I just wanted to give a Big Congratulations to everyoneclap.gifclapclap.gif
    who participated in this challenge. As I was not able to partake due to judging this round, I must admit this was a tuff theme. As I sat back and thought what photo would I use for this round... I was clueless. So a big shout out to all that came up with such creative ideas for this challenge.
    Really Great Job Everyone thumb.gif

    Honored and Humbled
    I'm both honored to be included in this list and humbled when I look at all of the entries. Many of these images are awesome photography even though they are "oops" finalists. I'm pretty sure I don't measure up. The insurance adjuster called with the tally for our "oops". That 150 pound deer caused nearly $7,000 in damage. Thank God for insurance, huh!

    I was MIA this round due to travel and whatnot for the holiday (driving from the Gulf Coast to the Great Lakes and back!), so I didn't have a chance to enter, but I enjoyed looking at all the final entries in the gallery. Glad to see that a couple of my favs made it to the voting round.

    Great job guys! clap.gif

    Wow! Time has flown! I logged on today to check the galleries and saw an entry gallery for #39. My first thought was, "Wait...#38 is already over?"

    Honored again to have mine among the finalists. Another round of great images, and unfortunately some of my favorites didn't make the cut. Good luck everyone!
