    Congrats ED, you pulled it off with a wonderful shot. Quite an exciting challenge going down to the wire. Too bad I'm at work or I'd have to have a beer.

    I also want to congratulate each of the participants in the challenge. There were many shots that worked for me. I also want to thank those who voted, and especially those that voted for me:D.

    I had fun and hope you all had fun too.

    Chris

    Note: I just want to say that if there were no challenges, I would have never taken that photo. The fun in these challenges is to create a spark in an area where we may never venture otherwise.

    A picture is but words to the eyes.

    Congrats!
    It was my favorite, Ed, from the minute I saw it.

    I must admit though that there were a lot of excellent entries. I'm not sure I'd even know how to set up a shot like Pixy Delights.

    Congratulations to all who made it to the voting stage!

    Ah, dry. I've just about polished off a bottle of Dry Sparkling wine so I can use the bottle:booze. These challenges are going to kill my liver:grim.

    How dry I am...How dry I am...nobody knows how dry I am:D.

    Congradulations on winning the challenge.


    Funny me--at first I thought it was bird seed flying swept by the wind--now I see it is flies. Well--to each his own.

    Lovely shot.

    Since I am new here, I did not get a chance to vote in this one. I was amazed and impressed by the caliber of photos. They are all winners to me clap.gif

    Ed - yours covered it all: amazing action, humorous animal, perfect capture thumb.gif

    Congratulations to all.
