    What a round! My top 10 were really about 25! Thanks to the judges for including me. I am always excited when I can get across my vision of a thought or a theme.

    Right before I submitted my photo yesterday I took a look at what I was up against, & told my girlfriend, - "This one's gonna be fierce." Congrats to all the finalists - the judges had their work cut out for them but did a great job - as for everybody else - NICE WORK. thumb.gif This challenge really brought out the best in everyone, I think. w/mc

    Congrats to all the finalists and to the judges who had to pick 10 pictures... I would have been unable to choose even 20 from this round... Amazing work everyone !

    Now how are we suppose to vote for one only ? Would it be possible to vote 16 times ? :D

    Yeah, they are good aren't they. Nice to see such great stuff. I need a partner to collaborate with, pushing me. Ever think of having a "Collaboration" round where you HAVE to have someone else be on your side of the camera or working the PP angle?
